Raytheon Negotiations

05/31/2008
At the Ratification meeting held on Saturday, May 31st, the
membership voted to accept Raytheon’s proposal for a new three year
Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Some members have asked questions regarding the progress of
negotiations, and why the Union web site is not updated . These are valid questions, and the Union Negotiating Committee wishes to
make our position clear:
- We will post information when we
feel it advances our position in negotiations, or to clarify misleading
information disseminated by Raytheon.
- We do not intend to negotiate
through the media, either print or electronic, as we intend to remain
focused on obtaining the best agreement possible at the negotiating table.
- It is also important to remember
that although the parties have reached tentative agreement on some
proposals, each and every tentative agreement is subject to ratification as
a package by the membership.
