Coalition Bargaining Reminder

Last week we passed a package proposal across the table to management that included our new travel policy, slightly changed scheduling language, and increased and expanded allowances for tools, boots, clothing and protective glasses. Management was not able to respond that night and so we are expecting a response on Monday. If you would like to be there to receive their response, it will again be held at the ODOT HR Training building at 2775 19th St SE, Salem, OR. If you're driving a distance we will have gas reimbursement forms. We will meet at the SEIU Building at 5:00-5:30 and will have dinner and caucus. After that we will head over to bargain beginning at 6:30. We are at the stage where a mediator is present so the face-to-face with management is limited. If you have any questions or comments please post them
