Announcements:

There is a Regular Union Meeting Monday at 7PM

Vacation Policy Change: Due to recent positioning through the vacation policy, the following changes will be made effective on Monday, June 21. For members on the book or under 28 days, three days notice must be given to go on vacation or to end your scheduled vacation early. You will also no longer retain your page and line number, but instead hold your position number. For example: If a member was number 26 on page 154-1 when he went on vacation, he will remain number 26 and be given a new page and line number, most likely a half line such as 158-3.5. As a reminder, members on vacation are not actively seeking work, and are therefore not eligible for the ERP.

Email Addresses wanted: From time to time we need to contact members with important information, and email would be a most efficient manner to accomplish this task.  We are asking our members to provide us with email addresses.  Either call us at 419-666-8920 or email us.  We will not share your email address with outside entities. Thanks for your cooperation!
