Reminder - Maneeley's Picnic Deadlines
A&R's Late Summer Picnic at Maneeley's is fast approaching and will be held on August 31. Cost of the picnic is just $15. Cash bar available. All A&R members are welcome to attend.
The deadline to register for this event ended 8/24/2018
The Post-Janus World
Some members have begun to receive mailers supporting a union opt-out campaign. These campaigns are typically run by out-of-state special interests groups which are well-funded (as in hundreds of millions) corporate/conservative operations. They are taking advantage of Connecticut's freedom of information (FOI) laws in order to exploit union members' privacy by requesting public agencies to hand over employee names and personal information. These tactics are not surprising.
Additional Payment
The 8/3/18 paycheck may have included an additional $5 or $15 payment. This payment is a settlement of a dispute regarding the implementation date of wages in the 2011 A&R contract.
A Few Updates
A Few Items Worthy of an Update:
A&R's LATE SUMMER PICNIC
A&R's Late Summer Picnic at Maneeley's is fast approaching and will be held on August 31. Cost of the picnic is just $15. Cash bar available. All A&R members are welcome to attend.
Deadlines to register:
- August 17 - Payments by mail must be received at the union office by this date
- August 24 - Payments in person must be made at the union office by 12:30 pm of this date.
- Registration/payments cannot be made at Maneeley's on the day of the event - the above deadlines must be met.
KNOW YOUR CONTRACTUAL BENEFITS
Don't take contract benefits for granted! The A&R contract provides members the right to receive one half day off with pay to attend one annual picnic and one holiday party (sponsored by either your agency or your union). Without this contract provision, leave time would be necessary to attend such functions.
We look forward to seeing our brothers and sisters at the picnic.
