AT&T Mobility Benefits Bargaining

Bargaining for AT&T Mobility benefits will be held in Atlanta, Georgia from June 3 through June 13. Current benefits are in effect through December 31, 2008.

The Union’s bargaining representative will be Jim Murray. If there is no agreement by June 13, negotiations will go through the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service for up to ten days. If the benefits are voted down after mediation, arbitration will proceed through the American Abitration Association and they will have the final say.

It is illegal to strike over benefits.

Local Contract Vote Completed

AT&T Mobility Members of CWA6203 met Sunday at the Holiday Inn to review and vote on the tentative contract offered by the company. President Jack Maxey explained the limited changes in the new contract and the new pay schedule was outlined. After an extended question and answer session members cast their votes on the contract by secret ballot. Their votes will be combined with those of other locals in District Six of the Union to determine the members response to the contract. Voting across the district continues through 3/27.


Contract Vote Extension to 6:30pm

Due to the Daylight Savings Time loss of an hour, you can cast your vote on contract acceptance at the union hall from 5:30 to 6:30 at the union hall.
