8. DESCRIPTION
On August 2O, 1997, I requested annual leave for September 13,
1997, 0900L to 1900L. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx was unable to approve it. My
request was denied and logged in the disapproved annual leave book.
Annual leave later became available. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx requested
annual leave for September 13, 1997, for the period that I had been
denied. His approved request allowed him to not report for work,
attend a party on Saturday afternoon. Management did not approve
the available leave on a first requested basis. Management gave it
to an employee who had requested annual leave after me. I was not
contacted and asked if I still wanted the leave that had been
denied. The Air Traffic Manager of Lansing AFSS issued a memo prior
to May 20, 1995, to all supervisors to remind them to check the
leave denied book each and every time annual leave is granted. This
memo from the Air Traffic Manager was not followed. I thought that
this issue would have been settled after NA-GL-95-10-LAN-06 was
resolved at the regional level.
9. CORRECTIVE ACTION DESIRED
While I understand that management can not right completely the
wrong that was done, since it is now in the past. Management can
compensate me for their error. Credit me with ten (10) hours of
approved leave, to be taken when I want the time off. I understand
that this will be when I can be spared from operations. This leave
when taken shall not lower my leave balances.

8. DESCRIPTION
This facility allows 6 FPL's to be off on annual leave throughout
the prime time leave periods from Memorial to Labor day and over
the Christmas holidays when we are usually at our busiest. During
non prime time periods such as winter months and early spring,
requests for annual leave are being denied on days where only one
previous request had been approved. In some cases, for example
March 7, 1998, no leave has been approved and yet all three
requests for leave on that day have been denied. My leave request
for March 7, 1998 has been denied. In an informal grievance
discussion with Xxxx Xxxxxxx, stated that the schedule the Union
and Management had negotiated allowed so many off on the weekends
during the winter schedule that leave requests on the weekends were
not approved. The schedule approved by Management during the winter
only allows an additional three (3) people off on weekends than are
normally off during our prime time period when we are at our
busiest. Management made the decision that an employee could be
released from this facility to Cleveland AFSS, not the Union.
Management made the decision that an employee could be released
from this facility to Lansing tower, not the Union. Management
promoted an employee to a operational supervisor, not the Union.
Management Promoted another two (2) employees to SLC center, not
the Union. The Union was not responsible for another employee
taking a medical retirement. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx's statement alludes
to it being the Unions' fault that I can not get leave on a
Saturday or a Sunday. That statement may in fact be an Unfair Labor
Practice.
9. CORRECTIVE ACTION DESIRED
Approve my leave requests for March 7-8, 1998. If you do not
accomplish this by March 7, 1998, compensate me for this unjust
action by crediting my annual leave balance with twenty (20) hours
leave. This leave to be used when I choose to use it. Allow for a
reasonable number of employees on annual leave requests outside of
Prime-time.

8. DESCRIPTION
On February 17, 1998 a call came into the Supervisors desk with
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx the Supervisor in charge. The call was from the day
care center which oversees the care of my daughter Xxxxx who is
three years old. The day care center asked to speak to me because
my daughter is sick. The notification I received was from Area
Supervisor Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx who told me that I had a phone call on
the C02 line. I informed Mr. Xxxxxx that I just received a call
from a pilot and it would be about 20 minutes. A few minutes latter
Mr. Xxxxxx placed a note in front of me stating your child is sick.
He then walked out of my view leaving me with no options but to
finish the briefing in a highly stressed state of mind. After I
finished my briefing I asked Area Supervisor Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx what
was going on, because there was no one on the C02 line. He stated
that he didn't know. I was left to figure out for myself which
child was sick, where the child is at, who else had been called,
and what type of emergency it was (illness or accident).
I feel the actions of the Supervisors compromised the health of my
child, jeopardized my career by allowing me to continue with the
brief in an extremely stressed state of mind, and they jeopardized
the safety of the flight of the aircraft that I was briefing.
I attempted to resolve this grievance informally on February 25,
1998 with my rating supervisor Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx. At that time
informed me that he was aware of all the facts relating to my
child's situation. This information was withheld from me at the
time of the incident. On March 16, 1998 this informal grievance was
denied.
9. CORRECTIVE ACTION DESIRED
I request a policy developed either written or unwritten which
covers personal calls that are of an urgent nature, and include the
rights of the specialists. In addition I request all personnel to
be briefed on the policy.

8 DESCRIPTION
I reported to work at Lansing AFSS on October 15, 1996, from
Bridgeport AFSS. At that time the Acting Air Traffic Manager,
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx informed me that travel days for my CPP move would
not be allowed, and that I would have to take annual leave for the
travel days.
My transfer to Lansing AFSS from Bridgeport AFSS, was under the
Memorandum of Understanding for the Consolidation Placement Program
(CPP), agreed between the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA),
and the National Association of Air Traffic Specialists (NAATS).
Section 5 of the Memorandum of Understanding states, "The
designated NAATS bargaining unit members must be identified within
120 days of the NATCA bargaining unit members entering the NAATS
bargaining unit. Each NAATS ATCS placed in an AFSS under the CPP
will receive a PCS order within two pay periods of being
identified, and will receive all related entitlements".
This Memorandum of Understanding was developed to settle an Unfair
Labor Practice filed against the FAA, by NAATS. When the Memorandum
of Understanding was signed on June 15, 1994, it was understood by
all parties to the settlement agreement that travel days would be
given for such a move, under the Consolidation Placement Program
(CPP).
9 CORRECTIVE ACTION DESIRED
Make me whole, provide me with all related entitlements to a
Permanent Change of Station (PCS). Credit my annual leave balance
for the leave I was required to take to cover the travel days from
Bridgeport CT to Lansing MI.

Subject: Denial of information requested on Written Warning, issued
to Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx.
In order to meet representational duties, I made a request for
information on behalf of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx. This request was made
under the provisions of U.S.C. 7114 (b)(4).
On (DATE) Mr. Xxxxxxxxx provided his written permission for
management to provide NAATS copies of his training records and
all other information NAATS has requested regarding the written
warning concerning the pilot deviation incident involving (Aircraft
Ident).
This denial of training and proficiency records affects the union's
ability to meet its representation obligation and will be
identified to appropriate officials as this matter is elevated
through the administrative process. NAATS intends to use this
denial on behalf of the employee and to justify the resolution
sought for on behalf of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx.
Please provide to me by the close of business (DATE) the following
information:
     1.   For what reason(s) does this request for information not
     meet the "necessary and relevant" standard of the statute?
     2.   What additional information do you need to make this
     request "clear and specific" enough for you to provide the
     information needed by me to meet representational obligations?
     3.   Are there any other reasons, justification or
     documentation you are using to deny this request? If so,
     please detail the reasons and all documentation used to
     support your denial.
NAATS reserves the right to any remedies available during any
appropriate administrative process to address violations of U.S.C.
7114 (b)(4), and other applicable statutes and/or agency orders
covering access to information to fulfill representational duties
and obligations.
