Day 1

2018 Contract Negotiations

On Monday September 24, 2018:

Tour of Plant

 Sisters and Brothers, your negotiating committee toured the plant-site with International President Bob Martinez, Western Territory General Vice President Gary Allen, Chief of Staff Bobby Martinez, Aerospace Coordinator Tony Blevins and Grand Lodge Representative Steve Nickel. The tour gave our leadership an up-close view of how hard we work for our Company. We toured Rita Road factory side A and the CDC. We then had a presentation in Building 800 demonstrating our product lines and how each missile is used in the defense of our great nation. We ended the day with tours in Composites and the Machine Shop. We want to thank all of the membership for welcoming our leadership and explaining the tasks that each of you were performing while wearing your Union gear. Our Leadership was impressed and reiterated how hard we all work for this multi-billion-dollar corporation, and the professionalism that our membership showed.
