CWA Members Hold Hard Line with Frontier
On August 27, California CWA members in CWA District 9 entered contract negotiations with Frontier Communications.
After several meetings, Frontier submitted a plan for healthcare contributions that union negotiators describe as "outrageous and insulting." The proposal included increases of over 60 percent to various items. Frontier has not provided any hard data to justify the necessity of such an increase.
Frontier has leveled concerning arguments and resistance to CWA's proposal for safer working conditions for members. The company has also been slow to respond to repeated requests for financial information.
Members have been working without a contract since September 7. A strike vote is currently underway and will be finalized on September 16.
