We have been informed by senior management at the TA, OA and MTA Bus that, due to the disruption caused by the hurricane, paychecks issued this week may have discrepancies.  The Union maintains its position that people who were told to stay home or were unable to get into work on Monday and Tuesday last week will be paid for those days.  However, the pay might not be in this week’s check.  If it is not, adjustments will be made to the checks issued on 11/21.

Also, not all of the overtime worked last week was entered into the computers by the close of the pay period.  Those hours will also be paid through adjustments in the next pay period. Please keep a record of all the hours you worked.  TWU members worked long hours restoring service and we intend to make sure everyone is properly paid. If you are not paid properly this week or in the check issued on 11/21, contact your Union division officers.
