AT&T West Contract Negotiations Update

We have been bargaining with the company for close to a year and have not been able to reach a satisfactory agreement on issues of critical importance to members.
We know you have a lot of questions about why this process is taking so long, and why we’re not on strike. We hear you. A strike remains a possibility if we cannot reach a fair agreement with the company. 

We encourage everyone to click to watch our latest video featuring myself and your four elected union bargaining committee members for the absolute latest on the status of our negotiations with AT&T.

In this bargaining video the committee addresses the status of many important provisions including:
 
·    Healthcare
·    Scope of work
·    Wages
·    Call center and customer service issues
·    Outsourcing
·    Additional training opportunities 
 

We’re fighting hard for you and will accept nothing less than what’s fair.  We’re now coordinating closely AT&T Mobility and DTV. These three contracts cover approximately 44,000 workers. Together we are too powerful for AT&T keep ignoring.
