IBEW Locals 289, 986, 1106 and 1431 Bargaining Update
Posted by 5150 on April 28, 2011
Frontier Communications and IBEW MIFA #1 locals have finished bargaining the additional 14 days as per the MOA. The Company has refused to back down on all its concessionary proposals. To date there is still not one proposal by the Company that is an improvement for the membership. Frontier refers to these contracts, as the gold plated, unrealistic, over compensated Collective Bargaining agreements of the past. Yet the company awarded their executives lucrative bonuses and continues to pay its shareholders the highest yielding dividend of any S&P 500 company.
We apologize for the delay in updating the site. The date of the next meeting with Frontier was just agreed to and we wanted to include it in this update. We are currently scheduled to meet June 6-11 with the company and a Federal Mediator per the MOA. The main topics of bargaining are the Pension, Medical and Dental benefits, Short term disability, 401K and Combining job titles with the work. There are many MOA’s in the 5 Collective Bargaining agreements that expire and need to be renewed. Please make sure you attend your union meetings for more detailed information. We need every member to where there union shirt on every Thursday and at every Company Meeting. United we bargain Divided we beg!
