LABOR BULLETIN JUNE

July 1, 2017 by ibew

BY BUSINESS MANAGER BOB WARD

INSIDE WIREMANS AGREEMENT

We are currently working on updating and proofing the Inside Wiremans’ Agreement per the recent CIR decision. The process of retyping this 42 page document to incorporate all of the revisions that were agreed upon takes quite a while and must be proofed word for word several times before it is complete. Once the typing and proofing is done, the agreement will be mailed to our International Office for final approval. When the final approval is received, we will get it to the printers and your copy of the 2017-2021 Inside Wireman’s Agreement along with wage sheets will be mailed to you. The 35% and 40% Apprentice increases went into effect on June 1st. The next raise that will impact all members will be August 1, 2017.

COURT OF DREAMS

On Saturday June 17th IBEW Local 340’s basketball team “The Sparkeez” finally had the opportunity to play at the New Golden One Center. Brothers Brendan Nelson, Ed Pennington, Adrian Chinn, Richard White, Richard Robertson, Gabriel Gutierrez, Stephen Venegas, Cochise Silva, Marc Powers, Garrett Powers and Marcus Dorsey played a really good game against the Plumbers Local 447 team “The Pipers” and although we lost by only a few points, the 160 Local 340 attendees who showed up to cheer them on all agreed that it was a great time touring the new Arena

and watching our players play on the same court as the Sacramento Kings. A special thanks goes out to Sound & Communication Installer Brother Michael Watts who volunteered to MC the game for us and did an outstanding job acknowledging all of the players and calling the plays. This new Local 340 basketball team was put together specifically for the opportunity to play at the Arena, but when Elite Power offered to sponsor them and pay for jerseys, equipment and league fees, the decision was made to continue honing their skills as a team. Hopefully, they will have another opportunity to play at the Arena next year.

Our Mens Softball League is playing now on Fridays at Rusch Park in Citrus Heights. The remaining games for this season are as follows. These family friendly Friday games are a lot of fun to watch so come out and cheer them on!
