Online Voting for Contract Modification

A change to the 2009-2012 Collective Bargaining Agreement has been proposed in relation to Shift Reliefs and attendance. Please review the proposed modification and attendance policy before voting. Polls will close on May 28th at 1:30pm. 

Each member is allowed to vote only once, and all votes are stored such that no identifying information is stored with the vote, thus ensuring a secret ballot.

You will need your employee number and your IAFF membership ID number to vote. Your IAFF ID can be found on your union membership card, the monthly magazine, or on a postcard arriving soon to your last known address.

Please contact your Trustee or any Union Officer should you have any questions.

The MOU is available here (pdf).

Please visit http://www.locali60.org/vote to cast your vote for or against the change.

As we said in an earlier post, the company sent us notice of  their intent to implement a new attendance policy.  This policy was brought to the table by management at the end of our last Labor Management meeting.  We assumed we would have a chance to discuss it at this upcoming meeting.  The Company must have other ideas.  More updates to follow as we pursue our options.
