Sisters and Brothers,
Although System Council U8 strongly encourages you to speak with a financial planner and has a history with Sharp Advisors, Duke Energy is not affiliated with them nor do they recommend them in any way. Any claim to the contrary is misleading and inaccurate. The Union has a history and relationship with Marcus Anderson and Sharp Advisors.
Sisters and Brothers,
On Monday of this past week, the Company and your Hines Union Committee swapped proposals at the bargaining table. The Company presented several proposals that would, "align with our other contracts and plants." Among these, M-1 (Operational Model), M-4 (Schedules of Work), and M-6 (Overtime Rate) are the most drastic proposed changes.
Sisters and Brothers,
In the summer of 2020, Florida - Labor Relations, engaged the Union with the idea of exchanging a floating holiday for MLK day. The Duke Energy non-bargaining unit employees were not given an option…they gave up a floating holiday in exchange for MLK Day.
Sisters and Brothers,
Please see the attached Union and Management proposals that were exchanged today at the bargaining table. Thank you and please continue working safely.
Sisters and Brothers,
Please see the attached MOU regarding DCC dispatchers operating Cap Banks in emergency situations. Please continue working safely.
Thank you.
