Seniority List Requirements
In order to maintain your position on the Seniority list, you must work or shape 10 total events and 1 of those events must be a non-baseball event in a calendar year.
To be eligible to work the MLB Playoffs and World Series, you must have worked 20 events. If the Union is not able to fill the call, then Seniority shall be recognized for ticket takers who have worked or shaped, during the season, of a minimum of ten events combined.
For New Hires: To qualify for a position on the Seniority List, you must work or shape 20 events, however, 5 of these events must be non-baseball events (I.e. Soccer, Graduations and Concerts.)
End of Shift Procedures
If you are working late at Gate 4, please begin using the hand scanners and not the towers. The towers at every gate will be shut down to conserve battery life for faster charging in preparation for the next day. If you are working late at Gate 4, please inform us of which scanners you are using. When you are working late at Gate 4, Please have your phone on and pay attention to any calls from your shop steward. We will be calling you to shut the gates down and leave for the day. You must be aware of any calls from the shop steward so that we may dismiss you as soon as possible.
When you are dismissed, please do not knock on the Locker Room door if it is closed, unless you are working late at the Hard Rock Entrance or Gate 4. When you are dismissed, and if you need access to the locker room, please wait for someone to be present to open the door for you. The Shop Steward or Assistant Shop Steward must be present. You may call the Shop Steward if there isn't anyone available to open the door.
Doubleheaders
When working Single Admission Double Headers, please note shifts will be longer than a regular game. Management may release us depending on the amount of people who have already entered and how many are still expected to arrive. Please expect to be there until the 6th inning of the second game.
Late / Scratch policy
Please do your best not to scratch. Late scratches cause us to be short, especially when there is nobody left to cover. If you scratch within 48 hours of the call time for when you are scheduled to work, you will receive a warning. If you are late or a no show for an event, you will receive a warning. Three warnings in a 12-month period will lead to termination of your employment at Yankee Stadium.
If you scratch within 48 hours because of an illness or a death in the family, you must provide medical / bereavement documents to be excused. Without any documentation, you will be assessed a warning for scratching late.
In the event there is a substantial delay in subway service, please use the link below for delay verification by the MTA Subway & Buses. If you are late due to a substantial delay by the MTA, you may use this as proof of a delay. However, this may not be an acceptable excuse for being late to work.
Locker Requirements
Locker eligibility is determined on a yearly basis. Lockers are assigned based on the amount of games worked the previous season.
To be eligible for a locker, you must have worked a minimum of 30 events at Yankee Stadium the previous season to be considered. There is a limited number of lockers, and lockers will be assigned based on the number of events worked the previous season. The minimum events required for lockers are dependent on availability and the total events worked the previous season. The minimum requirement for a locker will change every season.
At the end of every season all lockers must be cleared out. You must remove the contents of your locker the last day you are working. Anything left behind will be discarded.
