Management’s disheartening lack of engagement persisted over the three crucial bargaining days – a stark departure from the norm we’ve experienced throughout our longstanding relationship. We were promised […]
For the first time in three bargaining sessions, Kaiser finally met with our national bargaining team only to present a disgraceful economic proposal.
