LabCorp - What is our union doing to make our workplace better?

What is our union doing to make our workplace better?

We have several grievances currently ongoing including the payroll crisis, the missing 401k contributions, and mandatory overtime. We’ve demanded to bargain the installation of GPS trackers on the courier vehicles. We’re also working to resolve ongoing issues, such as:

  • Inappropriate and false messaging - Yes, the contract says they can give you a raise!

  • New employee orientation - LabCorp says it’s too difficult to email the agreed-upon union welcome letter to the new hires.

  • Unknowingly reassigned job descriptions/classifications other than what you were hired for

  • Difficulties in taking breaks/lunches

  • And much more!

We’re continuing to build our power for more fair and just workplaces. At our next monthly virtual meeting, Sunday, August 28, we will strategize a plan to win a strong contract next year, including substantial wage increases to recruit and retain staff. Improvements will be on the table, such as:

  • An option to take home your courier vehicle

  • Stronger protections against mandatory overtime

  • More affordable health care

  • Better call-in pay/language

  • And much more!
