This is a major development in the dispute with Trimet, 757 members are no longer insisting that Trimet provide a fully paid health plan to union employees!
The vote count took place on Friday, April 27, 2012 and was supervised by Helen Goche, the duly
elected Chair of the ATU 2012 Election Committee.
Proposal #1, maintain status quo: 336
Proposal #2, maintain status quo except insurance changes: 607
Amalgamated Transit Union -Local 757
did they say what insurance changes, or just accept all that TriMet has proposed for insurance changes??
ReplyDeleteIt's a compromise between what Mcfarlane wants and what the union wanted, which was of course fully paid health insurance.
ReplyDeletedo you have details? Retiree, so didn't get the info/vote. Interested in what they are proposing for retirees. thanks
ReplyDeleteCurrent retirees will get the same coverage they were promised, in other words no co payments.
