The Bargaining Team met with the Company today and passed the Union\u2019s proposal on the Health Care Plan. We passed a proposal that would provide real relief to the lower paid title as well as containing the costs to the higher paid titles.\u00a0We designed this to be cost neutral to the company<\/u><\/b>.<\/p>\n
We aren\u2019t even asking for more. We are only asking to maintain our current level of coverage while maintaining the same cost structure to our members.<\/p>\n
We passed the proposal late this morning. The Company rejected our proposal less than 3 hours later. We are outraged that the company gave so little consideration to such an important benefit to our membership.<\/p>\n
After the Company rejected our proposals for DTV and the USVI to be part of Article 43, the company passed proposals today to carry forward the following with no changes:<\/p>\n
Appendix A \u2013 DTV<\/p>\n
USVI Addendum<\/p>\n
Remember, the company\u2019s net profit in 2017 was 29.3 billion dollars. That equates to 80,273,972 dollars a day including Holidays (that\u2019s like you winning the Powerball every day of the year).<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
We will continue to work towards a fair and just contract for all.<\/p>\n
