Amtrak Seniority Rosters

View the current Track, B&B, and Electric Traction seniority rosters for the Amtrak property, including Southern District, Corridor, Off-Corridor, and Bid/Displacement lists.

The BMWED/Amtrak NEC seniority rosters are governed by Rule 16, the Off-Corridor rosters governed by Rule 7, both of which provide for an annual roster publication.

Seniority Roster Rules

Additionally, agreement rules detail roster protests and appeals, specifying a 60-day protest window that begins January 1st for Off-Corridor, and March 1st for Corridor. All roster protests should be submitted to Amtrak’s designated officer before the expiration of respective protest windows. Currently BMWED/Amtrak roster protests should be mailed to:

National Railroad Passenger Corporation
Mr. Frank Baldino, Manager Engineering
30th Street Station
Third Floor, North Tower, Box 22
2955 Market Street
Philadelphia PA 19104

A Seniority system is simple way for determining employment advantages based upon length of service. Our BMWED seniority system is instrumental in fairly determining who receives more favorable duty tours, work locations, promotions, and other work opportunities. Seniority also has an influence over bumping rights, which is a re-assignment of jobs, possibly for many people at a time. Our Seniority system has been formulated to avoid unfair 'bumping' in the event of a furlough. Generally Unions are strongly in favor of using seniority as the only criterion for making distinctions among employees. Most BMWE Agreements address seniority first but also take into consideration employee qualifications.

Also see Rule 10-Seniority, which addresses how BMWED employees earn, retain and accumulate seniority, and Rule 17-Order of Seniority, which stipulates the seniority order of employees who are hired on the same day.
