Fact
|
There will be no new contract.
|
The
UAW Bargaining Team is meeting regularly and we plan to start
negotiations for a new contract in June.
|
There will be no wage increase.
|
We ARE seeking a
wage increase and a fair contract.
|
There will be no strike.
|
The Union is
ready to call a strike if needed to get a FAIR
CONTRACT.
|
If you are laid off it’s to the
unemployment lines for you.
|
Anyone laid off
will be able to use the bumping rights in our contract.
|
Management can lay off anyone at
any time without consulting the Union.
|
Any layoffs must
be based on seniority within the Department. If you get a
layoff notice, contact the Union right away at 272-4108 or uaw2300@clarityconnect.com
|
You are not allowed to wear Union
buttons or pins at work.
|
It violates our
Union rights to prevent anyone from wearing a union button
where there is no contrary department dress policy.
|
When the contract expires on June
30, there will be no union; benefits, wages and jobs will then
be cut.
|
All benefits and
wages we currently have stay the same until we sign a new
contract.
|
Management can just reduce our
hours to save money if they want to.
|
Any reduction in
hours must be done in accordance with our contract. If this
happens, contact your Steward right away.
|
There is no one to ask to get
factual information about what’s happening.
|
Contact your Steward or call the Union at 272-4108
if you have any questions or concerns.
|
Some people are working out their
own deals with management.
|
It is illegal for
management to bypass the Union to work out a special deal with
any individual.
