Current Issues Concerning AFGE Local 200

STATUS OF NEGOTIATIONS

• 46 Work Rules Articles have been Temporarily Agreed Upon (TAU)
• There are a few Articles at Impasse (the Union believes these may quickly be agreed upon if the Pay Plan is completed)
• Pay Plan
  • The Union has submitted a Proposal and 4 Counterproposals (all written)
  • The Agency has Proposed "Core Comp" four times (written once)
• The Union believes we are close enough to avoid conflict and are willing to move towards a signed contract
• It is the Union's goal to have a signed contract before September 2007, but we are hopeful to come to terms well in advance of that date

FAA DRESS CODE

• Rumors abound on the Dress Code issue
• The Union has obtained a copy of FAA Human Resources Policy Manual (HRPM) EMP-1.25 - PROFESSIONAL DRESS
• This HRPM was not delivered to the Union nor is it on the FAA Human Resources Web Site
• The Union has no knowledge of FAA attempts to implement this policy chapter
• This policy will not apply to AFGE Local 200 Employees Without Negotiation
• We apologize for the clarity of the attached file, but it can be read when enlarged:
