Erie Labor Board Rules Erie Violated Wage Orders
The railway labor board ruled that the Erie railroad violated previous wage decisions in six respects by cutting pay and not restoring it as ordered. It upheld labor’s argument that no carrier may arbitrarily reduce wages even when revenue is tight, and outlined lawful methods for carriers to seek relief after failed wage disputes. The decision signals a defeat for the Erie and a win for employees.
