JANUARY 2020

INSIDE WIREMAN’S FEBRUARY 1, 2020 WAGE ALLOCATION

As you were notified, the Inside Wireman’s Allocation Meeting to discuss and vote on the previous negotiated $1.00 increase was held on January 18, 2020. After a very thorough discussion, a vote was taken, and it was approved to put $0.50 to Pension and $0.50 to Health & Welfare. We appreciate all those who attended the meeting and participated in this allocation vote. We have notified the Inside Employers of the February increase.

BASIC DUES INCREASE FOR ALL MEMBERS

Please remember that basic monthly dues have increased effective January 1, 2020 for ALL members. If you have not already done so, please be sure to note this change in your next payment.

END OF YEAR DUES STATEMENTS

As you all know, we have recently changed programs and we are diligently working to get the information need to send out the tax statements. This statement will provide dues information for basic and working dues for members who paid dues in 2019. They will be sent by email so please be sure we have your current information on file. If you would like your statement mailed, please contact the hall.

NEW MEMBER ORIENTATION CLASS

Our next class is coming up soon! We will be sending reminders to anyone who had not previously attended.  Please be sure to attend the next class on Saturday, February 29, 2020. Call the Hall if you have any questions.

CHANGES TO DEFERRED SAVINGS

By now both Inside and CECW members should have received a letter stating the changes to deferred savings. Along with the letter stating the changes we mailed a form that needed to be turned into the Sacramento Area Electrical Trust Office to Teresa Raney. If you have not yet turned in this form, please do so immediately. If you have any questions, please contact Teresa Raney at 916-923-0666.
