Make a Difference on Key Issues

On August 25 we reached a tentative agreement on Retiree Medical Benefits which requires that retired members be notified of their medical plan options prior to the expiration of COBRA and Cal-COBRA.

Despite much discussion, fundamental differences remain on these issues:

• Rest and Meal Periods
• Right to grieve and arbitrate if bargaining unit work is performed by non-bargaining unit staff
• Right to take a grievance to arbitration in disputes on job bidding and selection
• Use of Paid Time Off (PTO) for cancelations
• Administrative Leave
• Recognition of the Union as the sole bargaining agent for wages, benefits and working conditions

Come to bargaining 9/21. Show management that you’re watching and you care.
