Have a Heart - Bargaining Update

Have a Heart - Bargaining Update

Our Have a Heart bargaining team met with management last week to continue negotiations. We had productive conversations about new hire training, health and safety at work, compliance-related discipline and inventory discrepancies, PTO and sick leave, and wages. We’ve come to tentative agreements on guaranteed time and a half for the second half of double shifts and changing funeral leave to bereavement leave, which offers greater flexibility, and including parents in the 5 days paid leave. Our focus continues to be on winning crucial economic improvements, navigating the challenges of Have a Heart’s reduced staffing, and minimizing takeaways for both new and existing employees. We’re hopeful that management’s next proposal will bring us closer to a recommended agreement.
