Day 4 of the five-day course at the Winpisinger Center is in the books. If you’ve followed along on our journey, you can probably guess that today was all about what to expect during the actual negotiations as well as how to present our union’s requests to the company. We are truly excited to represent all of you during the upcoming negotiations. The majority of the day (8 hours) was spent crafting and presenting proposals and where appropriate, counter proposals.

We look forward to concluding our class tomorrow. Check back once more tomorrow when we will share our wrap-up of the class.

In solidarity,

Joe Paneck,

President, IAM Local Lodge 24

Hey everyone, this April the 13th we will be having a Council meeting at union HQ! It will begin at 9am and go until everyone is done! Several maryland politicians will be speaking as well as most of our union leadership! Our turnout in the past has been lacking and we need to turn this around. There will be a BBQ on site, brisket, burgers and hotdogs. This is a great opportunity for our old guard as well as newer hires!

Anyone interested in attending reach out to your steward or higher. The more the merrier folks!

It is Day 3 of the five-day course at the Winpisinger Center. We are still at work (1945 hours) diligently preparing the proposals concerning items you informed us was important to you to present to the company. Today, we learned about the language to use in the proposals. We also prepared a Bargaining Survival Guide which will clarify what happens during Negotiating. We plan on sharing these guides with all the brothers and sisters who wish to know about the process.  Please check back with us tomorrow for a Day 4 update.

Day 2 of the five day course at the Winpisinger Center is in the books. Today, we learned through the surveys you completed about what is important to the members of our Local Lodge. We incorporated your ideas into our Strategic Implementation Plan. We also received insight on Contract Law and how to present proposals by two wonderful and highly motivated instructors. The Contract Bargaining Committee agrees the knowledge we gained today is essential in our preparation for the upcoming negotiations. Please check back with us tomorrow for a Day 3 update.

Good evening Local Lodge 24 Brothers and Sisters!
