Union Action Updates

November 17, 2023

A WIN IS A WIN!

When we stand up and push back against management's violation of the contract, using language to fit their needs, and we come out with a posted 14-day change of shift notice and overtime being paid out for the weekend patrols, that is a WIN!

If we win 1 out of 10 it is huge. This meeting this morning shows the power in numbers and engaged union members.

I want to thank Terry Kapfer, Jean Zimmerman, Leslie Vaughn, Kelly Chirpich, Drew Sykes, and Bryan Kirsch for pursuing this issue and pushing it. We are not done yet; local 221 leadership is determined to get the $1/hr. for the 7/7 shops, we are anticipating a meeting with the MMB commissioner very soon.

We are also pursuing the 11pm start time for area wide drivers when split. If this language does not affect you, stand by because if there is an issue in the future you will need the union's support and voice to represent you.
