Fighting Today…Focused on the Future!
The Union passed multiple proposals today, including, Article 5 (No Strike), Article 15 (Job Classifications and Promotions), Article 22 (Excused Work Days), Appendix A16 (Benefits), letters regarding Recall Procedures, VSIPP Opt-Out, and a Memorandum on Stabilized Employment.
The benefits subcommittee spent a good portion of the day working on another counter proposal to keep our high-quality health care through the term of the next contract.
Tentative agreements were reached on Article 7 (Union Deductions from Wages) and Article 5 (No Strike).
This evening AT$T passed proposals on Article 12 (Problem Resolution Procedures), Article 16 (Benefits), Article 16 (Benefits), Appendix G and Appendix A13 (Monitoring).
Keep up the activities in the field! Keep up the pressure!
Thank you to Local 1298 in Connecticut for the handwritten postcards and good luck pennies that arrived today! We greatly appreciate the support!
