Zenith Spokane - Bargaining Update: Our Unity is Working!

/

The company has changed their Last and Final offer that we voted down by 97%! Our bargaining team has reviewed the company's latest offer which has moved significantly toward our last proposal. We are close, but not close enough to fully recommend a contract for approval.

The company MUST understand we will not move backwards during the term of this contract. Please continue to support the union bargaining team, as we continue the fight!

Spokane Zenith - Fair Contract Now! Online Vote Scheduled

/

After months of negotiations, it is time to vote on Zenith's final offer to us. Our coworker-led bargaining team is recommending a 'NO' vote on the employer offer and a 'YES' vote for an unfair labor practice strike authorization.

We believe the company has committed unfair labor practices, and the company’s last final offer doesn’t come close to being market competitive, and the additional healthcare costs mean more money out of our hard-earned wages. The work we do for this company must be respected. It is apparent from the company's latest offer that our work is not valued.

Informational Meeting

June 12
6:00 PM

We invite you to attend the virtual informational meeting on Thursday, June 12, at 6:00 PM to hear the complete offer and ask any questions you may have. The bargaining team will be present to answer any questions. You should receive an email with the vote document and vote instructions by 8:00 PM June 12.

If you do not receive the vote email, please contact Union Representative Mark Hansen at 509-340-7406.

If you have any questions, please reach out to your bargaining team or Union Representative, Mark Hansen 509-340-7406.
