ALSCO - Strike Vote - Enough is enough

ALSCO - STRIKE VOTE
Enough is enough

We have been at the bargaining table since September 2022. During this time, we have told ALSCO that employees must work two jobs to make ends meet and many employees are considering leaving ALSCO for higher paying jobs and jobs with safer working conditions.

ALSCO continues to propose increases to our health insurance, below market wage increases, and refuses to improve our retirement pension. Enough is enough! We are committed to bargaining in good faith, but we believe it is time to take action so ALSCO understands we are unwilling to agree to their current proposals.

On February 23, we will be voting to authorize a strike unless ALSCO proposes a fair contract which we can ratify on February 21, our next bargaining session.

ALSCO, do better by your employees. We deserve a fair and competitive contract.

We believe it is time that ALSCO hears our voice!

We have been bargaining with ALSCO Linen since September 2022. During that time, we have won improvements to layoff language, access to new employee orientation, extension to the grievance timeline, and reinstatement of seniority to previously laid off employees during COVID.

We have not been able to reach an agreement on several items including wage increases and benefits. ALSCO continues to propose below market wage increases, passing on health insurance premium costs to workers, and refuses to improve the retirement pension.

We believe it is time that ALSCO hears our voice! We want a safe workplace and want management to show their appreciation for our hard work.

We will be voting on ALSCO’s last proposal on January 17.

We are recommending a “NO” vote.

Chúng tôi tin rằng đã đến lúc ALSCO lắng nghe tiếng nói của chúng tôi!

Chúng tôi đã thương lượng với ALSCO Linen kể từ tháng 9 năm 2022. Trong thời gian đó, chúng tôi đã có được những cải thiện về việc thông báo sa thải, tiếp cận định hướng nhân viên mới, gia hạn thời gian khiếu nại và phục hồi thâm niên cho những nhân viên đã bị sa thải trước đó trong đại dịch COVID.

Chúng tôi đã không thể đạt được thỏa thuận về việc tăng lương, trợ cấp hưu trí hoặc bảo hiểm y tế. ALSCO tiếp tục đề xuất tăng lương dưới mức thị trường, chuyển phí bảo hiểm y tế cho người lao động và từ chối cải thiện mức lương hưu.

Chúng tôi tin rằng đã đến lúc ALSCO lắng nghe tiếng nói của chúng tôi! Chúng tôi sẽ không chấp nhận các đề xuất về tiền lương, lương hưu hoặc bảo hiểm y tế của họ.

Chúng tôi sẽ bỏ phiếu cho đề xuất cuối cùng của ALSCO vào ngày 17 tháng 1. Chúng tôi đề nghị bỏ phiếu “KHÔNG”.

Thứ ba, ngày 17 tháng 1, từ 1:00 đến 5:00
