OFS Bargaining Report #3
Brothers & Sisters,
Today was the day the company showed its true colors. Management gave the Union a presentation about the millions of dollars in profits they made last year. We believed that any respectable management team, who just received 26% bonuses, would have thought it was our turn to share in the prosperity that WE created. The Company passed a health care proposal today which proved that the management at OFS is far from respectable. They have proposed to double all deductibles, reduce coverage by 15% and add $2000 - $4000 in out of pocket maximums. In some cases, they want to double your premium payments by 2019.
We all must get ready for expiration! Make no mistake Brothers and Sisters this company just declared war on its active employees and we have not even received their wage proposal yet. They have taken more than they should have and now they want more. If they aren’t going to respect our hard work and reward us with fair benefits and wages then we need to be ready to engage WAR on this company!! Brothers and Sisters Mobilize, Enough is Enough!!
