BMW RDC Bargaining Updates, UAW REGION 9

BMW-RDC Update 5/28/2024

BMW-RDC Local 677 Rally

Our Union bargaining committee met with BMW negotiators for 8 long hours today and presented our non-economic demands. The company had the audacity to listen, and has presented us none of their own today. Not even a counter. Despite our requests 2 weeks ago for written responses to our proposals, we have not seen a single one. All BMW managers wanted to discuss were their concessionary proposals from last week, which are:

– No holiday pay during scheduled vacations. When called out by the union the company immediately scrambled but had no answers.

– Company overtime policy. More mandatory overtime for non-vital processes.

– Company vacation time. Stricter discipline for attendance.

Today we gave them our members demands which include:

– Reasonable notice for mandatory overtime.

– Overtime exemptions for previous commitments.

– Adequate training for all.

– Additional pay for trainers.

– 90-day hire, no more temps on full-time jobs.

– Improved uniform language with more options.

– Increased safety shoe allowance with real fitted inserts.

– Fair and unbiased light duty policy.

We have a verbal agreement on the continuous improvement committee and have been waiting for the written document for the last 2 weeks. We are still at the table while the company has left. The company is not in a rush to address our member’s demands. This is the respect they have for the workers who are making record profits for this company.

We will return to the table tomorrow May 29th to continue to fight for our priorities including…(record raises and an end to wage tiers at BMW! BMW made more than $20 billion (a 32% increase!) in profit last year. We work hard to earn those profits, it’s time to invest in us! or something similar)

Join us this Thursday, May 30th at 2:30 pm at the flagpole on the hill to show BMW that we, UAW members, mean business!

STAND UP BMW!

Actualización BMW-RDC Español 28/05/2024

Nuestro comité de negociación sindical se reunió hoy con negociadores de BMW durante 8 largas horas y presentó todas nuestras demandas no económicas. La empresa tuvo la audacia de escuchar y hoy no nos ha presentado nada propio. Ni siquiera un mostrador. A pesar de que hace dos semanas solicitamos respuestas por escrito a nuestras propuestas, no hemos visto ni una sola. Lo único que los directivos de BMW querían discutir eran sus propuestas de concesión de la semana pasada, que son:

  • No pago de vacaciones durante las vacaciones programadas. Cuando el sindicato llamó a la empresa, inmediatamente se revolvió pero no obtuvo respuestas.
  • Política de horas extras de la empresa. Más horas extras obligatorias para procesos no vitales.
  • Tiempo de vacaciones de la empresa. Disciplina más estricta para la asistencia.

Hoy les entregamos las demandas de nuestros miembros que incluyen:

  • Aviso razonable para horas extras obligatorias.
  • Exenciones de horas extraordinarias por compromisos anteriores.
  • Formación adecuada para todos.
  • Pago adicional para entrenadores.
  • Contratación de 90 días, no más temporales en trabajos de tiempo completo.
  • Lenguaje uniforme mejorado con más opciones.
  • Mayor asignación de calzado de seguridad con inserciones ajustadas reales.
  • Política de trabajo ligero justa e imparcial.

Tenemos un acuerdo verbal en el comité de mejora continua y hemos estado esperando el documento escrito durante las últimas 2 semanas. Seguimos en la mesa mientras la empresa se ha ido. La empresa no tiene prisa por atender las demandas de nuestros miembros. Este es el respeto que tienen por los trabajadores que están obteniendo ganancias récord para esta empresa.

Volveremos a la mesa mañana 29 de mayo para seguir luchando por nuestras prioridades, incluidas… (¡aumentos récord y fin de los niveles salariales en BMW! BMW obtuvo más de 20 mil millones de dólares (¡un aumento del 32 %!) en ganancias el año pasado. Trabajamos difícil obtener esas ganancias, ¡es hora de invertir en nosotros o algo similar)

Únase a nosotros este jueves 30 de mayo a las 2:30 p. m. en el asta de la bandera en la colina para mostrarle a BMW que nosotros, los miembros de la UAW, ¡vamos en serio!

¡LEVÁNTATE BMW!
