CORE Mobilization

Over the coming days and weeks, we will be reaching out to our CORE employees to verify contact information. Newer employees may be presented with a contact information sheet to fill out and return while employees who have been with the company for several years will likely be contacted via telephone to confirm current information.

We are in extremely early stages of organizing and information gathering, and will have more information available as time progresses. While we are still many months away from contract negotiations, we would like to make sure that we are prepared to fight for the contract you deserve.

Many of our members will have experience with mobilization surrounding contract negotiations, but for those of you who do not, the contact information we are updating is simply a way to get up to date information dispersed to our members in a timely, efficient manner. Our Local mobilization coordinator will pass updates and information on to worksite mobilization coordinators such as chief stewards, who will pass the information forward to group coordinators, who will pass information forward to their assigned group of employees.

This means that everyone will have someone to look to for up to date, accurate information, not rumors and hearsay.

Additionally, when there are mobilization activities, this will be the structure used to help mobilize the members of our local. Mobilization activities include things like wearing red on Thursdays (we encourage members to do this every Thursday!) and the 10-2-4 standups to informational pickets, and if called for, strikes.
