On January 26, 2016,\u00a0SMART Sheet Metal General Committee 1 signed 17 new members that work for Bombardier at TriRail in Miami & West Palm, FL.<\/u> After a long organizing campaign that lasted months, followed by a long round of negotiations, a five (5) year agreement was reached for members that perform mechanical and store house work for Bombardier.
\nThe agreement gives members yearly General Wage Increases (GWI), bonuses and a cap on the cost of health care. According to General Chairman Joe Fraley, \u201cthe majority of these individuals have never been in a union prior to now.\u00a0\u00a0Because of this, we have and continue to spend time working individually with each worker on the enforcement of their new collectively bargained contract and what they can expect from their union. We look forward to using this success as a launching pad for further growth at here and at nearby facilities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
