National Mediation Board Sets Dates for United Public Contact Employee Election!
Voting Starts: January 17th
From IAM District 141 President Rich Delaney (12/29/2011) via IAM141.org:
District 141 is pleased with today’s
announcement by the National Mediation Board that the long awaited
election for representation of Public Contact Employees at the new
United Airlines will finally be conducted. Our current members, and our
future members, have been anxiously waiting for the opportunity to cast
their vote.
As this historic election process unfolds, District 141 will work
hard to provide all eligible voters the information they may need to
make an educated decision. Officers and representatives are available to
answer any questions. Our websites, www.iam141.org and www.voteiam.com
have useful comparisons and explanations of what our Union is and how it
works. We encourage you to visit these sites often, as information is
continually updated.
The National Mediation Board will be sending voting instructions
directly to each eligible voter. If you have not received voting
information from the NMB by January 24, 2012 please contact District 141
at (847) 640-2222 to assist you in obtaining duplicate information as
soon as possible.
We look forward to the day that all 16,500 members of the Public
Contact Employees classifications – Customer Service, Reservations,
Station Operations, and those furloughed members waiting to return to
work – join with their brothers and sisters of District 141 and all
other organized workers of United to experience the benefits of Union
representation.
Fraternally, —Rich Delaney
President, District 141, IAMAW
