Dispute Over Unilateral Elimination of Local Individual Retirement Counseling

This dispute concerns revisions to Employee and Labor Relations Manual (ELM) Sections 569.1 and 589.1, Retirement Counseling. The APWU's position is that the elimination of previously established individual retirement counseling at the local level violates past practice, the collective bargaining agreement, and the intent of the parties' Step 4 settlement in case Q00C-4Q-C06054413.
