SCOPE Discussions
Airline Division Director David Bourne, Clacy Griswold and Ed Gleason met with UAL senior management last week in Chicago to further discuss the Union’s scope proposal. After several hours of candid discussion, both sides recognized that the new contract’s scope proposal must include provisions that address three critical issues: (1) work and job preservation; (2) work recovery; and (3) new work opportunities. Both sides agreed to prepare bullet-point proposals for use in refining these concepts and for eventual incorporation into a new contract.
Upcoming Negotiation Dates
The Field Service and SCOPE sub committees will engage the Company in discussion on those issues next week in Chicago. Talks with the Company are expected to continue during the week of April 12th in San Francisco.
