...ATTENDANCE, AVAILABILITY & ABSENTEEISM POLICIES Source Text for Power Point Presentation – 2013 IWC & SWM LC Workshops Preface: Attendance, availability and/or absenteeism policies are designed to minimize the unit expense of maintaining the operating workforce. They exist in a variety of iterations, but common to them all is the arbitrary identification of employees who exceed certain unilaterally established metrics for availability, attendance and/or absenteeism. They are blind to mitigation(s), and are classically applied in a mechanistic, formulaic fashion by supervisors who are required to manage by rote and not allowed to evaluate employees on an individual basis. Thus, these policies frequently drive disciplinary decisions that are not supported by just cause and are reversed in labor arbitration for that reason. Background: While carriers have the right to establish policies as part of their managerial prerogative, those policies do not rise to the level of Schedule Agreements, and cannot conflict with them. Unfortunately, this principle offers little real time comfort to the employee faced with the immediate application of the policy, who will have to wait for possible vindication in arbitration. When employees report for work and read some new attendance, availability or absenteeism policy bulletin, they tend to equate it with the Schedule Agreement, and may even speculate that the Union consented to it, or somehow “gave something else away.” When these...

...insights from current research in such areas as lexical studies, text linguistics and pragmatics to maintain a constant link between language, translation, and the social and cultural environment in which both language and translation operate. In Other Words examines various areas of language, ranging from the meaning of single words and expressions to grammatical categories and cultural contexts. Firmly grounded in modern linguistic theory, the book starts at a simple level and grows in complexity by widening its focus gradually. The author explains with clarity and precision the concepts and theoretical positions explored within each chapter and relates these to authentic examples of translated texts in a variety of languages, although a knowledge of English is all that is required to understand the examples presented. Each chapter ends with a series of practical exercises which provide the translator with an opportunity to test the relevance of the issues discussed. This combination of theoretical discussion and practical application provides a sound basis for the study of translation as a professional activity. Mona Baker is Chairman of the Education and Training Committee of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting. She has more than seventeen years’ experience as a translator and has taught at a number of academic institutions such as the University of Birmingham and the University of...

...what judges do and how they become judges. Then, we will look at judges’ discretion and how it affects their relationships with others. INTRODUCTION Judges are by far the most easily recognized member of the courtroom work group, both by their conspicuous robes and by their prominent position in the courtroom. They are also the subject of many stereotypes because the public wants to believe that judges combine patience, wisdom, and compassion to arrive at fair decisions, while they eschew the character flaws that sometimes form the basis of decisions by others, including prejudice, intolerance, favoritism, and hostility. Unfortunately, judges are human and their decisions occasionally reflect such a reality. One West Virginia judge, for example, became so enraged at a defendant who began cursing at him in court that he jumped down from his bench, tore off his judicial robe, and bit the tip off the defendant’s nose (Smith, 1998). He served five days in jail on state assault charges, and was then tried in federal court for violating the defendant’s civil rights. Before he was acquitted of those charges, he acknowledged that his behavior was “bizarre and weird,” and that he had reacted poorly in an emotionally charged situation. While this incident is isolated, it shows that judges are sometimes far from the ideals to which the public holds them. We will return...
