DOE & Commercial Power Plant Work Force Integration

I asked for this after my wonderful 14 day outage at surry last spring.  The upside would be if it comes from Bartlett maybe your benefits will stablize between the two locations and money stability.   The only downside is if you don't live in the DOE site area, or like 51 + miles away, you never get home again.   I would take it myself if I did not already have a semi-permanent job now.    It shows somebody is thinking there at Bartlett.     I wonder if juniors can get in on this, what a way to quickly move to 3.1.

I hate to sound negative (and this may be a non-issue), but how does the Union at Hanford figure into this?  If you leave Hanford to work at another facility will the Union hold a spot for you (or fill it with a member currently paying dues)?  And how does "seniority" fit into this (which means a lot at Hanford).  This isn't mentioned in the "Blog", but should be a concern.

Mike_Koehler:
In the past at Hanford, the Bartlett folks were carried on a different list (as Temps )(not part of the main seniority list) and were laid off before the Techs on the main list. There also were issues with OT. For all you people thinking about these opportunities make sure you ask all the pertinent questions or don't whine later about not being told everything... :o :o Many techs were disgruntled on a previous go round when they discovered that they would only get OT after allof the non bartlett techs had been asked......

disclaimer: I am not currently associated with the work groups that are looking at temps and don't know what the language of the current contract is, just commenting on past practices......

I have forwarded your question/comments to my Mgr in charge of the Hanford contract and asked him to address the issue on the blog site.

Do not hesitate to raise any other questions so i can have them addressed.

Thank you,

Eric
