The issue in this grievance is whether an employee can be given veterans' preference retroactively when he fails to advise management prior to his effective date of hire. After reviewing this matter, we mutually agreed that no national interpretive issue is fairly presented in this case. It is incumbent on an applicant for employment to advise of veterans' preference on those occasions when he is required to do so. Accordingly, we agreed to remand this case to the parties at Step 3 for further processing, including arbitration if necessary. This document contains two Article 19 related issues; a Clerk Craft Step 4 Settlement Agreement on page 1 and a Maintenance Craft Step 4 Settlement Agreement on page 2.
