Article XXIII, Grievances and Mandates

I hope that this message finds everyone well and relaxed from their Thanksgiving break.

 

As we stated in our previous emails, Local 97 is monitoring and negotiating with our employers over the vaccine mandate and/or testing situation. Over the past weeks, a few different updates have gone out. If you missed them, they are all available on our website.

 

In addition to the vaccine mandate, the normal work of the union continues. As you will see below Local 97 had a meeting on Article XXIII and are continuing to pursue grievances and arbitration for our members.

 

Finally, we have some in-person meetings coming up in December. While attendance is limited for these meetings, sub-division meetings will also be held to ensure that all members are able to participate. A full list of subdivision meetings can be found on our website. I encourage everyone to attend these meetings.
