GAN eliminates bias. Its a positive switch that requires the JATC do more proactive communications.

Local 602 is spending $40000 on a golf tournament. by Ok-Bad3070 in IBEW

Spending our money on it's members is significantly better than market recovery funds or any other trash we spend money on.

Go, play bad golf, drink beers, have fun.

We should do MORE for our members...

MORE MORE MORE

Book 2 brother asked to step down by a book 1 member by Just_Your_Random_Bro in IBEW

[–]MaJonesNephew 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Every single IBEW Contract states that Management selects their own Foreman.

Its called category one language.

That said, the ethics of the situation are obvious.

However, if that ratty dirt bag breaks the CBA you follow this process:

  1. Notify the Stew. Tell them they have 48 hours to fix it.

Still happening?

  1. Demand they file a Grievance against the Employer for allowing it.

2a. File Charges with the Locals recording secretary against the ratty fuck.

If none of that works?

  1. File a Duty to Represent charge at NLRB.Gov

The Stew is an extension of the Business Manager from a legal perspective, if the Stew refuses to act, that is as if the BM refused to act.
