Soladarity
I have to wonder under what mandate they have gone into the negotiations. Considering that we were asked to vote. the results of the vote is known and we all know what increase bracket most members wanted.
Suddenly, we are informed through ATNS's Chief negotiater, (who is doing a very good job of keeping everyone informed of the latest developments), that Soladarity dropped their demand to 10.5%. Maybe I am not good at maths, but how do they go from 17% to 10.5%. While ATNS went from 8% to 10%. Then they put it to their members to decide:
1. Accept the company's offer of 10%
or
2. Go to arbitration for 10.5%
What a joke!!
Should they not have consulted with their members before dropping their demand to 10.5%?
I think that Soladarity is misleading their members.
Well that is just my opinion.
