IBEW 827 website has it for NJ & PA. Also declared in Potomac region. Appears to be techs, central office people and other titles. http://ibew827.com/ http://cwa2222.org/index.cfm?zone=/unionactive/view_article.cfm&homeID=156067
It is select titles and groups
Locals in PA and NJ are posting the announcements and lists of titles.
The union said this isn't true and have not heard anything about an EISP being offered.
Don't think so. I do not see any emails about this.
Company wide or select groups
Its true. Just saw email from labor relations you will get them this week in the mail. Off payroll oct 9th
Looks like this isn't true.
Nothing heard yet here.
It's 7 am on Tuesday. Announcements, anyone?
I think the first word usually comes from the financial advisor at the local union. Our guy sent us a big envelope this week, but it was just baseball tickets.
I haven't heard of this date! Does this come with reliable sources or people just wishing for one?
I don't see that happening.
This has been the ongoing rumour. I won't believe it until it's in writing. I don't see them offering the 100,000. Unless there is a limit on how many would take it the whole place would practically go.
@IZxHxDm-1nmn , you don't understand much. That is the minimum. If the company needs more bodies to leave they can always enhance the package, of course the union will agree if it benefits those who want the package.
It is my understanding that the company no longer needs union approval when offering an EISP. It is in the new contract. Read the RTW agreement. It outlines the offering : 50k plus 2200 for every year worked up to 40.
If the company were to offer a 2 and 2 plus 100K which would be nice, wouldn't they need union approval being the EISP is union negotiated. I would be extremely suspicious with this rumor, if anything I would expect the traditional EISP. Although it would be nice for a lot of pre-2003 people and would make sense with all the new staff they are hiring to offer the 2 and 2 and 100K to get people off payroll from a higher rate with 4 to 5 weeks vacation to pay the lower rate with 2 weeks vacation.
Company wide or select titles? I heard offer will be in September. Do not know when off the payroll would be.
I heard that on 20 May 2016 the company is going to declare a lockout and hire all new workers and fire the strikers.
yup
2 and 2 plus 100k
So the "is the eisp offer coming this week" post for the week is already up.
