Legislation to Eliminate Collective Bargaining!

House Bill 106 was introduced by Rep. Keith Grover http://le.utah.gov/~2012/bills/hbillint/hb0106.htm. This bill will limit collect bargaining for state, county and city employees to negotiating only wages and health benefits. As our members in both Salt Lake City and Salt Lake County know, we do not negotiate health benefits through a Memorandum of Understanding. Therefore, we would be limited to negotiating wages only.

That means every other benefit negotiated would be eliminated. This includes grievance procedure rights/representation, longevity pay, snowfighter pay, tool and certification allowances, 501c9 benefits, to name BUT a few.

We need you in this fight!! Additional information will be forthcoming!

"We must guard against being fooled by false slogans, as 'right-to-work.' It provides no 'rights' and no 'works.' Its purpose is to destroy labor unions and the freedom of collective bargaining... We demand this fraud be stopped." — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. speaking on right-to-work laws in 1961.

Local 1004 Announces Public Safety Legal Plan

Nov 09, 2011 (11:24:00)

“You can’t afford not to…”

September 29, 2011

To AFSCME Public Safety Members:

AFSCME Advantage has partnered with American Union Provider Services to offer the Public Safety Protection Program (PSPP). This new benefit provides added protection for on-the-job activities that result in civil or criminal legal actions and workers’ compensation representation. This unique program is exclusive to AFSCME’s public safety members.

The program includes no cap on legal representation for civil and criminal actions that arise from activities on the job as well as workers’ compensation matters, greatly increasing the chance that members will get the money they need when they are unable to work. We have partnered with the PORAC (Peace Officers Research Association of California) Legal Defense Fund and Jacoby & Meyers Workers’ Compensation Legal Plan. Detailed information will be mailed out shortly.

Membership dues for public safety personnel are $38.00 per month. During times when no one can afford to spend outrageous amounts on attorneys and expenses, it becomes even more important to you and your family to know you are protected.
