Whittier Health Center Bosses: Stop Union Busting, Now!

Rehire the illegally fired health care workers, Now!

Victory to 1199SEIU!

>Dozens of fired workers and their supporters demonstrated outside the Whittier Street Health Center in Roxbury Friday morning to protest what they say is retaliation for trying to organize a union.

>Twenty employees of the center were let go Thursday afternoon, some in the middle of their shifts, according to 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East, which is holding an election next week. Many of those fired, a group that includes nurses, doctors, and mental health workers, supported the union campaign.

Veolia/Transdev and Boston City bosses, one of your out-of-town lawyers described your intent and purposes today as, “You ain’t seen nothing, yet”. Your only proposal, to Delete the CBA’s Civil Rights Committee, says it all for your trump-loving, racist, austerity-minded delegation. Here’s our first response: ... See MoreSee Less

>About 14,000 AT&T phone service technicians and call center workers in five states have walked off the job in an unfair labor practice strike. These members of the Communication Workers in Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin began picketing May 31 after the company engaged in an illegal “unfair labor practice” known as “direct dealing.” Bypassing the union’s bargaining committee, AT&T sent emails directly to workers to try to get them to accept a final contract offer.

>AT&T’s action exposes how companies try to undermine and bust unions. But an advantage for workers in a ULP strike is that it is illegal for companies to fire workers or permanently replace them during the strike. Companies cannot use replacement “scabs,” and striking workers can collect unemployment benefits.

Team Solidarity- the Voice of United School Bus Union Workers added 5 new photos — with Jamel Saiegh.

As Local 8751 enters contract negotiations with the transnational, union-busting outfit Transdev and the City of Boston, it has come to our attention that the company "is not happy" with the Union's contractual Health & Safety trainings. Of course, the company "is not happy" with our wages, benefits, rights and all other sections of our CBA which, after 40+ years of strikes, job actions and fight-back, have provided Local 8751's members, families and the communities we serve with the best working conditions for school bus drivers in the country.

At today's training, drivers put Transdev on notice that we intend to defend every sentence in our CBA, including the right to have the best Health & Safety trainer in the world, Jamel Saiegh!

"No Concessions!"

>This is about race and police violence. It is also about labor rights. As soon as we realize that, the question is not about the anthem. It’s about the oldest question of the labor movement, one that every fan should ask themselves: Which side are you on?

>When the New School administration announced it planned to lay off all cafeteria workers, represented by UNITE HERE Local 100, and have them reapply for their jobs, with most positions to be filled by students, students sprang into action to defend the cafeteria workers. They occupied the cafeteria, demanding no workers be laid off. Students rejected this racist, union-busting attack on Black and Brown workers with the slogan, “All of Us or None! Every Single Job!”

>The workers announced May 10 that they had reached an agreement ensuring that every cafeteria worker would continue to have a job at the New School and setting dates for contract negotiations.
