New COVID Guidelines

The Center for Disease Control (C.D.C.) has issued new guidelines for the current

COVID – 19 conditions. The management at the Strattec Unit has agreed to follow these guidelines.

 

  • If you have COVID - 19, you should isolate for five days. After the first five days, if you don’t have any symptoms, and you haven’t run a fever for over twenty-four hours, then you should wear a mask for the next five days to minimize the risk of infecting others.
  • If you are exposed to someone who has COVID -19:
    • and you are unvaccinated, or it has been more than six months since your last vaccination, and have not had your booster shot, you should isolate for five days, followed by wearing a mask for five more days.
    • and you are vaccinated, and have had your booster shot, you do not need to isolate, but you should wear a mask for ten days after being exposed.
    • Anyone who is exposed should get tested five days after they were exposed.
    • If you have any symptoms, you should immediately isolate until a negative test confirms that your symptoms are not due to COVID – 19.

-In Solidarity,

Unit President

Changes in the Local

Brothers and Sister of Local 2-232,

I wanted to start by saying thank you to everyone who came out to vote and had your voices heard in both of our ratification meetings. With the passage of this contract we have secured higher wages, additional benefits, and security for everyone for the next four years. I truly believe this contract is one of the best our members have seen and is without a doubt a foundation to build future agreements on.

 

Strattec Second Ratification Vote & Document Downloads

SECOND RATIFICATION VOTE:

 

While the Union understands that the second ratification meeting is being called quickly, we believe the gains to be substantial in addressing the concern of the majority of our members based on feedback following the rejection of the first tentative agreement, the response to the Union's text program, and the quick turn around in the Rejection Surveys. The proposed changes in the Last Offer Document expire by midnight on September 7, 2021.
