Sisters and Brothers,
Please see the attached MOU regarding staffing at the Hines Energy Compex during the COVID-19 pandemic. This agreement will require minimal Bargaining Unit staffing levels to operate the plant while allowing other crews to work from home and remain isolated and free from exposure. Thank you.
Sisters and Brothers,
These are strange and scary times. I realize working during a worldwide pandemic, when most of the country is closed, leaves you anxious and concerned about being exposed and potentially exposing your loved ones to this horrible disease. This update won't ease those concerns; honestly, I'm just as concerned as you.
Sisters and Brothers,
Please see the attached agreement which extends the Citrus Combined Cycle contract until the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided. The 3% GWI will still be applied effective March 9, 2020, the original expiration of the initial contract. Thank you.
Sisters and Brothers,
Considering the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Union recently agreed to the Company offer to provide benefits to Bargaining Unit employees, not otherwise provided under the terms of the MOA.
The Company will provide up to an additional 40 hours of paid time off to provide care for or arrange care for children, the elderly or dependents requiring care.
Sisters and Brothers,
As the Union and the Company continue to work on finding ways to safely perform our Bargaining Unit duties during a worldwide pandemic, the Union must balance supporting the efforts of the Company while also protecting the interests of membership. With this in mind, the Union has agreed to the attached Callout Guidelines for Distribution during this emergency situation.
