July 16 Update

Today is July 16th. We informed the Company that they have committed an unfair labor practice by the posting on their website, regarding probationary employees. We informed the Company that we are going to be taking the appropriate action including Labor Board Charges.

The Union gave the Company its Counter Proposals on Article 5, 7 and 9, as well as the proposals on Article 3 & 4, with our Economic passage which included the IAM Pension, enhance medical, holidays and wages.

All in all this will be our first pass back on Hours of Work and the start of our Economics. Now is the time to let the Company know you support your Negotiating Committee and expect a fair and equitable contract.
