May 2021 — Line Clearance Message

In Asplundh Tree, we had two members terminated for refusing to take a drug and alcohol test. In NGGilbert, we had a foreman written up for his passenger wearing his seat belt improperly. The company said the in-vehicle camera in the truck spotted the passenger not wearing the belt correctly, and that the foreman should have pulled over, stopped the truck, and told the passenger to put it on correctly (FOR HE IS THE CAPTAIN OF HIS SHIP). Asplundh Tree is sending crews to local 1319 in PA to keep members working. Davey Tree also is sending crews out of state to keep members working. Lewis Tree will be out of work on JCP&L property in June.
