Statement of Unified Bargaining
Committees
The unified CWA-IBEW bargaining committees
continue to negotiate economic, employment security and
retirement security issues. Progress continues but issues
remain, particularly concerning employment security and union
jobs and recognition.
We must remain unified and disciplined,
working on the job and working for a just
contract. |
Thanks to your incredible
mobilization, the company has finally started to move.
Although we have not come to agreement on our major issues,
we have made enough progress to agree continue discussion.
This means that all tours will continue as
scheduled. All contract provisions are still in force.
Flying squads will continue to monitor company activities such
as moving trucks and holding training.
Your bargaining committees will be working
throughout tomorrow to reach a fair settlement. We retain
to the option to call a strike at any time.
Again, it is your mobilization that is giving the
bargaining committees power at the negotiating table.
