Negotiations Update – March 4, 2011

The parties met in San Francisco and progressed further towards the conclusion of discussion with the company for an agreement. During the normal course of this process, situations often develop that required more attention and discussion. We were able to reach tentative agreements on articles regarding Reduction In Force, Seniority, and Overtime. Compensation, benefits and scope discussions continue.
The full committee will meet next week in Chicago to carry on with negotiations.
