Temp Inter Division Transfer Update.

Members,

In February, the Union and Company agreed to a Temporary Inter Divisional Transfer L.O.U with an expiration date of May 31/25.

2 weeks ago SR VP Brad Forster approached the union for an extension till Sept. The Union requested an updated list of members currently still on transfer. That list was finally received yesterday (May 26/25).

The Union is currently waiting on HR to draft up an extension L.O.U to review. Expectation was this should have been received last week from HR but again, unfortunately it was not. We hope to review in the next day or 2, depending on when HR gets the Union the draft.
