May 1, 2012
Yesterday the parties met to discuss the resumption of bargaining.
Back in September of 2010, the union recommended that the parties initiate bargaining the 14 individual contracts in a group setting to discuss the industry-wide core issues. This group process had been the norm during bargaining in 2007, 2004 and 2001.
Yesterday the union demanded to discontinue bargaining the 14 individual contracts in a group format. The parties are now preparing a schedule to meet and bargain with each employer individually.
The employers remain committed to obtaining a fair and reasonable agreement.
