A decision on the contract arbitration cards should be judged at the contract table at North Furnace Hall, where the rule changes an ordinary route, shift or service. Keep contract terms, meter readings and worker testimony beside one another. The current file is the Year third, smelt run window 3 review, not a permanent settlement of every future case.

The the signed job card, arbitration note and final pay slip lists 55 disputes resolved with the pay change visible on both copies; the previous window lists 56. Grikka Ash checked both against crew logs compared with the inspection card for the same shift. The difference matters because how workers can verify a contract adjustment after a dispute is closed.

The contractor points to a signed note. Workers say the final pay slip should show how that note changed the amount. Those objections deserve a clear answer. They are not a reason to keep an uncheckable rule simply because its wording is familiar.

A useful decision names who will do the work, which count will change and when the result comes back to the public table. In this case, the arbitration note is filed separately from the shift card.

The Year third, smelt run window 3 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The table will attach a pay-change line to the closeout copy.
