The issue in these grievances is whether the grievants were entitled to an additional guarantee under Article 8 because they were told to go back to work after they had punched off the clock and had not left the premises. After reviewing this matter, we mutually agreed that no national interpretive issue is fairly presented in these cases. We further agreed that this was a local issue suitable for regional determination based upon application of the November 10, 1981, pre-arbitration settlement of case Nos. HBN-3P-C 25588 and HBN-3Q-C 26319, which states in part "employees who complete their assignment, clock out and leave the premises regardless of interval between shifts, are guaranteed 4 hours of work or pay if called back to work. This guarantee is applicable to any size office."
