We hope everybody has a great holiday. Be safe!
And most of all, try to enjoy yourselves and your families.
As we go forward this summer, please remember to watch yourselves out there in the heat.
So far the company has not said a word about heat safety so its up to us to look out for ourselves and each other out there. The CWA wants you to be aware of what to watch out for out there on the job.
Know what to look for.
Do you know someone who is not in the union and should be?
Lets work together to bring them in and gain their support.
Give 'em a
card to sign!
We need all the strength we can get to protect our rights as
workers.
Things to Consider:
-
Union Officer Elections are in November 2011
-
Our current contract expires in May of 2011
-
We need your suggestions for bargaining
-
Are you prepared financially for the negotiations and the possibility of a strike? Now is the time to prepare.
-
Its hot out there, be safe and check on your buddies every once in a while. We have good information for you here.
-
Our "Static Line" is up and fully functional. Let us know what you think. We like people who complain here!
-
There are excellent educational opportunities you can take advantage of that the company may even pay for so check out the links
-
Remember that "working to the rule" does not mean slowing down at work. It means doing the job right and following all recommended safety practices in doing so.
-
If it is possible to do so, find some article of RED clothing or accessory to wear on Fridays to show your commitment to solidarity! And check out this article for more information. We can't let the uniform policy stop our commitment to our union or each other!
- Everyone please welcome our newest member Will Barkley!
Lets not forget that the freedom we celebrate this month came at a price. If you see a service member or veteran please take the time to say
Thanks
HAPPY
BIRTHDAY!
