Question No. 2: Does a carrier have the option of either granting a vacation with pay to an employee or keeping him at work and paying him in lieu thereof? Carriers' Contention: The position taken by the carriers on this question is that: "... the carrier has this right depending upon the requirements of the service." Labor's Contention: The labor organizations, on the other hand, contend that: "The answer to this question is,'No.' The management is not permitted to exercise any such option. The second paragraph of Article 5 specifically provides the only condition under which an employee may not be released for a vacation and paid in lieu thereof. "This condition is where an employee cannot be released because of the requirements of the service. The purpose of the vacation agreement is to grant employees vacations with pay-not deny them vacations, keep them at work and pay them in lieu of vacations. "The employee is obligated to take his vacation at the properly designated time. The management is obligated to release an employee for a vacation, and nothing short of real service requirements must be permitted to interfere. A carrier does not have the right to decline to release an employee for vacation because some additional payroll cost will accrue, or because of some preference or convenience to the carrier, or because some re-arrangement or adjustment of work will be necessitated." Referee's Decision: It is the view of the referee that when the language of the second paragraph of Article 5 is read in light of the primary purpose of the vacation agreement; namely, that all employees who can qualify should receive a vacation, the conclusion is inescapable that carriers do not possess the unrestricted right or option to keep an employee at work and grant him extra pay in lieu of a vacation. Here, again, the solution of the problem rests upon the exercise of good faith. As the spokesman for the employees points out, on page 425 of the transcript, the President's Emergency Board, in its report of November 5, 1941, rejected the notion that vacations should be denied in the railroad industry because of ''great pressure upon the railroads to maintain constant, rapid, and efficient service." In its report the Emergency Board stated: "Thus they urge that to accomplish this end it is necessary that there should be no disturbance in the continuity of railway operations. Further, they maintain that the probable dislocations and many adjustments that the adoption of a vacation p...
Question No. 4 I notice that only Manufacturers who hold a GSA Contract can submit a bid. Does the GSA Contract held at the time of submitting a bid have to remain in effect for the entire term of the Florida Contract? Answer No. 4 Awarded Contractors may request price and product changes at any time during the contract term in accordance with Prices/Discount, Section 5.10, Addition/Deletion of Vendors and Products Offered, Section 5.13 and Contract Revisions, Section 5.23. Question No. 5 I am requesting that the deadline for questions be extended. This bid was issued just before Christmas break and many of the manufacturers I represent are just getting back as they were closed the last two weeks. Another few days to a week would be helpful to be sure we have reviewed and asked all relevant questions. Answer No. 5 The Event Timeline is comparable to previous solicitations for this commodity. The Department does not intend to amend the timeline. Question No.6 As a continuation of my question on GSA Pricing- our current GSA catalog is out of date (and) has several line items that are obselete. The new GSA catalog has several new line items - we would like to submit the new price list as the basis for our bid, even though it has not been approved by GSA yet (should be within a month). Can we do that? Answer No. 6 The Basis for Award, Section 3.15, specifies products currently available on GSA Schedule. Awarded Contractors may request price and product changes at any time during the contract term in accordance with Prices/Discount, Section 5.10, Addition/Deletion of Vendors and Products Offered, Section 5.13 and Contract Revisions, Section 5.23.
