Windstream Workers Score Four Contract Wins
In Pennsylvania last month, CWA Local 13000 members who work for Windstream won big, ratifying four separate contracts.
A very determined and savvy bargaining committee managed to win significant improvements, including:
- The best wage package in 15 years, with base pay and GWI adjustments.
- Fewer years of service required to receive both a third and fourth week of vacation.
- Substantial increases in daily per diem rates and overtime meal allowances.
- Trips home during prolonged out-of-town assignments.
- Additional time for representatives to conduct union orientation meetings with new hires, and more.
Major goals for the bargaining committee were securing better wages and stopping company efforts to substantially increase member healthcare costs. Committee members were able to achieve both of these goals under the skillful leadership of CWA Local 13000 Windstream Unit President Pat Catalano, who played an integral role by keeping the committee focused and ready for any curveball the company threw at it.
