HealthRIGHT 360: We have a tentative agreement!
We’ve secured a strong 3-year tentative agreement with HR360
with across-the-board wage increases, improvements in dependent
and family medical benefits, & more.
Over the last week, we’ve had individual worksite meetings and a
large statewide meeting to discuss and celebrate the gains we’ve
made in this tentative agreement. Strong agreements like

Labor Management Committee: Tips & Traps
Group Classes Via Zoom
Thursday, March 7, from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Labor Management Committees (LMCs) can be a useful strategy for representing members’ interests when new issues arise mid-contract. On the downside, LMCs can be a way for management to appear to listen without actually doing anything, tying up important issues in endless investigation/conversation. At their worst, LMCs can be utilized by management to delay or divide the union. No prior LMC experience is needed to participate in a 1.5-hour Zoom discussion on the tips and traps of LMCs.
