CWA/ATT SE Bargaining Report #22

With just over one week remaining until contract expiration, there continues to be vast differences between our idea of a fair agreement and the company's idea. After seemingly fruitful discussions in subcommittee, the company has devalued everything we have proposed. We want to reach an agreement that benefits all of our members. Unfortunately, the company wants a contract that benefits only the corporation. We must stand unified and send a clear message to the company.

CWA/ATT SE Bargaining Report #21

The bargaining team met with the company late yesterday and received a few packaged proposals. The company proposed expanding the scope of work for Wire Technicians, changing the surplus process within CPE, and adding additional steps to the surplus process for all employees. We are continuing to form counter proposals in response to the mediocre proposals we have received from the company. It is becoming very clear to the team that the company is not sincere about getting a contract.

Your bargaining team worked throughout the weekend reviewing proposals in order to respond to the company’s position. At our last meeting with the company, we rejected several proposals intended to eliminate work protections in Article 14, allow contracting of work in the CPE and Wire Technician arena, expanding the Wire Technician scope of work, and raising the double-time pay threshold.

CWA/ATT SE Bargaining Report #18

We met with the company today and countered their atrocious benefits proposal. We are still working to keep our members who serve in the armed forces pay protected when serving this great country. It is very discouraging to have to argue this point, and have the company leverage this issue against some of the other improvements we are seeking. MOBILIZE. MOBILIZE. MOBILIZE.
