May 24, 2006
No formal meetings took place today. The Chairs of the Company and Union bargaining teams met informally most of the morning to discuss the status of bargaining. The Union team met all day to continue formulating our proposals and counters.
Both the IBEW and CWA bargaining teams are on call waiting on the Company to make a new proposal on job security. As we have said from the beginning, this round of bargaining is about JOBS and we will not achieve an agreement without a secure future for our members and retirees!
The next update will be tomorrow after our mobilization call at 4:00 pm.
Strike signs have been sent to all Locals, and Picket duties should be known by all members. Any work performed should be done in full compliance with Avaya's procedures and guidelines. No one should be working overtime.
The clock continues to the Saturday midnight hour and apparently Avaya still wants it to strike!
Three more days!!!!
In Unity,
CWA-Avaya Bargaining Team
