The EL-401 has no authority as a handbook or manual and should never be cit- ed or referred to in any manner to support management's position with regard to scheduling and premium pay for bargaining unit employees.” In a National level arbitration case, H8C-NA-C 61 dated December 27, 1982, Arbi- trator Gamsxx xxxermined that the EL-501, "Supervisor's Guide to Attendance Im- provement", was not an official Article 19 Handbook or Manual: “This case was brought on for arbitration by the APWU, in a grievance subject to disposition at the National Level challenging the force and effect which the Postal Service allegedly bestowed upon EL-501, a publication entitled SUPERVI- SOR'S GUIDE TO ATTENDANCE IMPROVEMENT which was published in No- vember of 1980.
