This Step 4 Settlement Agreement addresses whether a bump occurred when the grievant, who was a full-time regular MPLSM operator, was assigned to the manual case and part-time flexibles were utilized on the MPLSM. During the discussion, it was mutually agreed that part-time flexible machine operators may be utilized and rotated into crews with full-time employees. This utilization did not fit the contractual definition of "bumping". The parties further agreed that it was not the intention of management that part-time flexible machine operators bump the full-time operators.
