Bargaining Continues
After months of negotiations, UFCW 3000 members at BDA made our voices heard when we voted down the Employer’s latest contract offer.
As a result of the vote, the parties are moving our contract dispute into binding arbitration scheduled for March 6 and 7. This process provides both the Union and the Employer the chance to present arguments supporting their respective last proposals to an arbitrator, who will then make a binding decision on the terms of our final agreement, which would immediately take effect.
During the arbitration process our union will be advocating for a contract that:
Increases wages for all workers
Addresses overall benefits including bonus pay structure
Protects scheduling and hours for workers that want more
Our union looks forward to resolving negotiations through arbitration and coming to a settlement that advances our working conditions and wages. In the meantime, if you have any questions or face any discipline at work, please call Union Rep Dominick Ojeda @ 206-436-6586.
