Attention: Chief Stewards and Shop Stewards
We are asking that our stewards gather all in-plant e-mail addresses for the members they represent.
Since the Company refused to let our members access our website from within the plant we would like
their e-mail addresses so we may send them a copy of the newest website news when we have updates.
Please fax the information to
our office @ 410-247-0764.
The BWI Negotiating Committee met with management
on May 1st and reached a
tentative agreement on Labor Grade 12 Machinist currently assigned to the Model Shop.
N/G SAVINGS PLAN - REFUND OF CONTRIBUTIONS
The BWI Local Negotiating Committee was advised of a Internal Revenue Service rule which effects some of our members. In order to bring the Plan into compliance with IRS regulations, a portion of the 2007 contributions made by highly compensated employees are excess contributions and must be refunded by the Company. Those individuals will be contacted by mail.
HAGERSTOWN
Our Negotiating Committee met with management and received the Company's evaluations for Maintenance and Quality positions. The Company is proposing keeping those descriptions at
the current pay level.
