• Bargaining Update -> Frontier Communication [telecom]

    From Sean Murphy@21:1/5 to All on Thu Feb 3 21:42:39 2022
    After months of bargaining, mobilizing, and the threat of a strike,
    CWA members at Frontier Communications in Connecticut (CWA Local 1298)
    and New York (CWA Locals 1170, 1111, and 1122) reached a tentative
    agreement on Monday. The new 3-year agreement includes wage increases, elimination of two-tier medical plans, and protection of call center
    jobs, and it retains the current 401(k) matching and pension
    plans. This win follows a tentative agreement reached by Frontier
    members in California last week. The members wrote thousands of emails
    to Frontier executives, participated in countless rallies, and engaged
    members of the public and elected officials. These agreements are
    reflective of the power the members generated by actively mobilizing
    and fueling the strength of their bargaining committees.
