agree there ograc!
The WARN Act would not apply to BUF, it didnt employ enough people.
robbedagain,while its true that TPA hangar lockout was strictly maintaince I was trying to point out the fact that the company will do whatever it pleases, even violating contracts, dont give a rats about their own employees lock them out etc yet i guarantee you this much if it were them being effected they would give a dam
please enlighten. This WARN Act. Contractual language or Legislation? Won in court. Who represented the affected employees? Do you believe the choice of (BUF shut out) arbitating or LOU should have been given to the members affected? Your input is respected and appreciated.The WARN Act would not apply to BUF, it didnt employ enough people.
cltrat,maybe the common decency act would apply, of course we all know that will never happen at a place where the workers are considered a necessary evil
Unfortunately you elect them to represent you and they have power of attorney.
Me I say fight everything, this company isnt worth making deal with.
But as you know it can take three years to get resolved, so you have to weigh the pros and cons and go from there.
Thank you for the info. Do you think the District should have given the choice to the affected BUF employees on how the IAM should proceed (i.e. accept the terms of the LOU or arbitrate under the grievance procedure)?

To obtain and invite input and knowledge from others is never a negative. Unless, of course, you and the candidates you support have already "cornered the market" on all knowledge pertaining to legislative and contractual issues, as you seem to be suggesting. Based on your post, are you insinuating the current AGCs had full knowledge of this legislation and why it did not apply to BUF based on the numbers? I doubt it. You're never too old or smart to continue learning.WARN Act
This is what we have to consider when voting for an AGC. The Company will be pulling out all stops to pressure us in negotiations. Having a grasp of legislative issues that apply to labor is important. We cant afford a big learning curve now. Knowledgeable people are what we need. Just an opinion.
