Transport and Medical Workers Join CWA

More workers are gaining CWA representation.

In New Jersey, 65 part-time medical consultants at the State of New Jersey Disability Determination Service won representation with Locals 1037 and 1038. The workers had been excluded by management from the existing CWA bargaining unit even though they were doing the same work as full-time medical examiners, but finally won recognition and bargaining rights.

In Washington State, five utility workers at MV Transportation in Seattle won a CWA voice through a unanimous NLRB vote. They join the 332 workers at the company already represented by CWA Local 7800.
