EOT claim
We've seen a slight uptick in incoming EOT claims, which is a good thing, and we appreciate all of you holding the Carrier to the agreement. We'd like to see even more of them though.
ED and PNW crews, If you are instructed to hang an EOT in a location that has carman on duty please use the template below and file your claim. Road crews still get 2 hours, yard crews 1 hour.
