Contracting Out AwardsThe grievance rules of our collective bargaining agreements provide that claims not settled on the property may be resolved through arbitration. The three arbitration forums provided for in the Railway Labor Act are the National Railroad Adjustment Board, Special Boards of Adjustment, and Public Law Boards. Following are a sampling of the National Railroad Adjustment Board's 3rd Division decisions as they concern BMWED/CSX claims submitted against contracting out scope protected work. 37953 | The Carrier violated the Agreement when it assigned outside forces (Banahan Construction) to perform Maintenance of Way work (dig trench, install conduit pipe and related work) from the water clarifier to the river pump house in Selkirk Yard at Selkirk, New York on April 1, 2, 3 and 4, 2003, instead of B&B employes F.
