IFPE 4408 Member,
Your IFPE Negotiation Team has met with management 4 days in June to negotiate a successor 4-year Master Agreement. IFPE presented management with 32 proposals holding 2 economic proposals until we are further along in the negotiation process. At this time, we have tentative agreements on 20 of 32 proposals. Although a lot of progress was made, the 4 days of negotiations in June did not allot us enough time to reach an agreement by July 01, 2019.
Negotiations dates have been scheduled for the following dates: 7/18, 7/19 and 7/22. We hope to have a complete Tentative Agreement soon to present to our membership for a ratification vote. Any agreement made will be retroactive to July 01, 2019.
Please reach out to your RC-Area Vice President if you have questions or need further details.
In Solidarity,
Tom Jackson
IFPE 4408 Negotiation Chair, RC-56 AVP
