BNSF General Chairmen,

On June 2, 2015, TYE Compensation Systems will introduce a change to the screen used to file special claims (option 1B) from the Timekeeping main menu.

This change will further enhance the ability for employees to file special claims based off event driven information, rather than just selecting the CA code. Based off a series of pop ups that are provided, employees will select from those screens and the CA code will be selected for them, again based off the events they have selected. Also, the process for filing a makewhole has been simplified with new tracking enhancements for the makewhole claimant.

We have done two pilots with this new screen design, one in Kansas City and the other in Northtown. Based off the positive feedback from those locations we will move forward with the changes next Tuesday, across the entire BNSF system.

We have put out a paperless broadcast to announce the changes to the TYE population and have also provided the attached documentation at all on duty locations.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Thanks,

GAW
