Ask the Union if they can GUARANTEE higher wages and benefits at the end of negotiations? Are you willing to roll the dice?

However, if the employees vote for the union at our company, the Company will bargain in good faith with the union. Negotiations could last weeks, months or years. No one knows how long negotiations will last.

 

During this time, the Company must maintain status quo with your wages and benefits. At the end of negotiations wages and benefits could be higher, lower or the same.

 

Are you willing to roll the dice if the union can get you any increases in wages and benefits or even a contract that exists at Geneseo Communications, Inc. at the end of negotiations that would even pay for the cost of your union dues?
