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.
