The issue in this grievance is whether the grievant is properly being refused time to process grievances during her tour of duty. After further review of the matter, we agreed that there was no national interpretive issue fairly presented as to the meaning and intent of Articles 1 and 17 of the National Agreement. The parties at this level agree that the grievant, as a Contract Technician, (PS-6) is a member of the clerk craft bargaining unit. PSO bargaining-unit vacancies and employees are treated as if they are part of the appropriate bargaining unit of the MSC in which the PSO is domiciled. Accordingly, we agreed to remand this case to Step 3 for further consideration by the parties.
