Did you know that it is only the
NON-UNION employees
that do not get their accrued vacation pay, should they be dismissed or
self-terminate before their anniversary date. BTW this was implemented in
2006, supposedly. (If you weren't aware of this, you are not alone.
This policy seems to have magically appeared only a couple of months
ago.) You must make sure it is well after your anniversary date,
(because this date can change without notice) now that your pay stub no
longer displays vacation hours accrued/used as it did before MRG sold
out. Should you decide
to retire or leave the company, it doesn't matter if you have over three
quarters of your time accrued, THEY KEEP IT! WHY?
BECAUSE THEY CAN!!
WE ARE NON-UNION!!
On the other hand, UNION employees essentially write their own
ticket as it pertains to accrued vacation time. If they wish, they
can vote to pro-rate vacation time to the very week that they separate
from Mandalay Bay. Unfortunately for us dealers, until we unite
and negotiate our contract, our accrued vacations will be decided by
upper
management. And as you know, their policies can be changed on a whim.
So to protect our accrued vacation time, we need to print out and
send in those CONFIDENTIAL AUTHORIZATION CARDS right away so we
can vote to YES to join the "LAS
VEGAS DEALERS LOCAL 721".
This is the only way we
dealers will be able to protect our vacations, our tokes, our health
benefits, our wages, and our job security.
