Enough is Enough
The last several negotiations have focused on wages, staffing, security, and holiday pay. We made reasonable proposals back in October. We’ve even made adjustments lower on staffing numbers and wages from our original proposals.
Management’s response on wages?
20 cent raises for nearly 50% of the staff…and they’re not budging
Management’s response to our staffing proposal?
No additional staff for any departments or job titles…and they’re not budging
Management’s response to our security proposals?
No security staff and refusal to accept members’ proposals to limit potential violence in the workplace….and they’re not budging
Management’s response to holiday pay?
No Holiday pay…and they’re not budging
It’s time to demand the respect we deserve!!
