Railway Wage Demand Sparks Key Pay Reform Debate
The executive committee of the Association of Railways releases findings showing 66 western railways paid engineers and firemen $1.403 million for work not performed in a year due to "or less" wage clauses. They argue such provisions create compulsory pay for minimal service, citing 17.4 million miles of constructive mileage in 1913. Train service workers seek eight hour or less terms with 106 miles or less, effectively pushing for 25 percent higher wages plus overtime, a major salary increase tied to time and a half.
