The Denver Regional Transportation District (RTD) is recalling all full-time union employees and working to bring back all 137 part-time operators, the agency reported. The pandemic-induced staffing reductions at RTD included 309 represented employees and 90 salaried employees. In early December, RTD notified the rail and bus operators who would be laid off, and in early January, notified additional union staff and salaried staff, it reported.
