Furthermore, individuals who wish to be eligible for dispatch to clerk jobs must pass the industry cognitive skills examination. Finally, individuals must produce a valid state driver's license at the conclusion of the final processing meeting. Identified casual workers occupy entry-level part-time positions. They are not eligible for and do not receive welfare (medical, dental, etc.) benefits, holiday pay, ILWU-PMA Pay Guarantee Plan benefits, vacation pay, pension benefits, or any type of so-called "fringe benefits’ under the ILWU-PMA labor agreement or otherwise. Please be further advised that w orking casuals as well as applicants for longshore work have no guarantee or expectation of any amount or type of longshore work or of any advancements or promotions within the longshore industry. Working casuals and applicants are further advised that the ILWU and PMA reserve the right to change and even rescind this hiring program, dispatching privileges, work rules, contractual provisions, work opportunity and possible future advancement or promotion in the longshore industry. Applicants must request, in writing, that an interest card be mailed to them. All interest cards must be completed in their entirety and be received by mail no later than 5:00 PM, Monday, March 3, 2003, by the Portland Joint Port Labor Relations Committee to be considered valid. A random drawing will be held on Friday, March 7,2003, and the selected applicants will be scheduled for further processing thereafter.

Main Street, Suite 330 Portland, Oregon 97204-3277 This will be an equal employment opportunity/affirmative action selection program. Please also be advised that this hiring program is being conducted in compliance with a voluntary affirmative action plan under which approxim ately one half of the 52 selections will be designated for certain minority applicants to address identified imbalances in the composition of the Identified Casual workforce in the Port of Portland. Please be further advised that any complaints concerning the hiring process, including any claim regarding the non-selection of an applicant, must be filed as a grievance with the Joint Port Labor Relations Committee under Section 13.3 of the Pacific Coast Longshore and Clerks Agreement within ten (10) days of the incident giving rise to the complaint. Failure to file a timely grievance means that the complaint will be treated as invalid.
