CWA and AT&T negotiated a new Article 43 in our contract. New Article brings LNS technicians to our bargining unit at the cost of many give backs.
AT&T has notified this local that there is a surplus of 16 technicians and 1 senior operations clerk for White Plains. VTP will be offered. Off payroll date for surplussed workers will be June 25 2004. Any surplussed union worker should make sure their ATS profiles are up to date and they should contact the AT&T Resource Center. See Benefits for Resource Center information.
Changes at Local office
She was hired by Andy Kosar's administration in July 1986 and at the time she thought she was just filling in and would not be working for our Local very long. Gail had taken over from our prior clerk named Maureen Major when this Local had 500+ members. She said she was fairly treated by Andy Kosar's and Mary Lou Algiere's administrations. Gail has no immediate plans although she did mention the desire to open her own business. Gail will continue to help us for one day a week. We wish her the best of luck in whatever career she chooses to pursue.
