Local 3642 RDU Res

Cafeteria Access Denied

​

From 3642 President Tammy Scott--I was just advised that our union can no longer have a table in the cafeteria. This would be for all the res offices DFW, PHX and RDU Res. So, going forward, our mobilization efforts will take place from the parking lot. We will set up a table and hold events outside.

 

Our next mobilization event will be October 17th. That will be during our next bargaining session.

 

Please save the date for November 14th. I will share more information later. This will be held at the CLT Airport. We need as many as possible to attend.

This action, moving Local events outside, shows that that our mobilization efforts are having an impact on the company as they appear to be retaliating

wearredlogo_edited.jpg

Update regarding

temporary HBRs

​

Your CWA-IBT bargaining committee agreed to extend the work from home agreement for six months, beginning in January 2024.

 

We wanted to make sure our members were aware of the extension before the upcoming bid.

Save the date...

November 14

​

On November 14, 2023, we will be having another mobilization event at the Charlotte Airport where CWA will again conduct informational picketing. Local 3642 President Tammy Scott will keep us posted when all the details are available.

Part-time shift hours

reduced on winter bid

​

Due to feedback from your CWA-IBT bargaining team, 20 hour part-time shifts will be offered on the upcoming bid in October.

​

This has always been contractual however it’s never been utilized since we’ve been unionized. This was due to staffing needs.

​

For the winter bid 80 percent of the part-time bid will be 20   

hour shifts. this will include small desks with less then 20 part-timers, including RDU CKS will have 5x4 shifts.

​

Twenty percent of the part-time bid will be creative shifts with a variety of options, such as 16, 20, 24, 25 and 30 hour shifts options. Other options are 2x10 shifts working Saturday and Sunday. (The above above-mentioned shifts options are available to SLS, IAD and RSD.)

CWA Passenger Service Members Picket at
Charlotte Douglas International Airport--August 15, 2023

Members of passenger service locals from throughout North Carolina gathered outside Charlotte Douglas International Airport to participate in informational picketing concerning bargaining between CWA-IBT and American Airlines. The union was sharing information concerning the speed of the bargaining process and the company's lack of response to its Scope and Range proposals that were presented last October.

​

Local 3642 was led by President Tammy Scott, Tammy Hux, Corey McLamb, Michelle Reddick, Maria Clarke, Sandi Paisley and Alddy Moreta. The passenger service group had a great showing, despite the heat index being above 100 degrees. Charlotte channel WCNC will air interviews on their 5 p.m. news on August 15.

 

As more and more members become involved in mobilization the company has to take notice and see our work group is united and is serious about receiving the contract it deserves.

SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS

​

JOE BEIRNE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
​

Sixteen partial college scholarships of $4,000 each are being offered for the 2019-2020 school year. Winners, selected in a lottery drawing, also will receive second-year scholarships of the same amount contingent upon satisfactory academic accomplishment.  Part-time students, less than 12 credits, will receive half of the scholarship monies. Eligible for the awards are CWA members and their spouses, children and grandchildren, including those of retired or deceased members.

​

The CWA Joe Beirne Foundation was established in October 1974 by the Communications Workers of America Executive Board to honor the name and memory of the founding President of CWA, who served for more than 30 years. In his capacity, as the first CWA President, Joe Beirne took great pride in the roles he played in the fields of education and learning and other areas of social concern. On April 26, 1999, the CWA Executive Board voted to combine the Joseph Anthony Beirne Memorial Foundation and the Ray Hackney Scholarship Fund, thereby creating the CWA Joe Beirne Foundation. 

​

ELIGIBILITY

​

CWA members, their spouses, children and grandchildren (including dependents of laid-off, retired or deceased CWA members) may apply. Applicants must be high school graduates or at least high school students who will graduate during the year in which they apply.

​

WHO WAS BEIRNE?

​

Joseph Anthony Beirne is considered CWA’s founding leader. The son of Irish immigrant parents – his dad was a union railroad worker – Beirne grew up in Jersey City, N.J. and went to work in 1927 for Western Electric, the Bell Telephone System’s manufacturing arm. With the New Deal labor reforms and passage of the Wagner Act in 1935, Beirne and others were inspired to begin organizing the nation’s phone workers. After the National Federation of Telephone Workers was formed in 1938, the fiery and charismatic Beirne soon ascended to the presidency in 1943 at the age of 32. He set himself the mission of molding this loose federation of autonomous unions into a true international union. That goal, forged in the fires of a tough nationwide strike by 350,000 Bell System workers in 1947, was achieved the following year with creation of the modern Communications Workers of America. With a strong new national structure and affiliation with the militant CIO in 1949, CWA, under Joe Beirne’s leadership, broadened its organizing focus. It grew steadily in numbers and strength and used an innovative pattern bargaining strategy to raise wage and benefit standards throughout the communications industry. The union also became a leading force in the political and legislative arenas, community services, the civil rights struggle, and global labor affairs. When Beirne, who was seriously ill, stepped down from the presidency in June of 1974, CWA had become recognized as one of the most dynamic and progressive unions in the world – qualities that also described its leader for more than three decades. Joe Beirne died on Labor Day 1974. The Joseph A. Beirne Foundation honors his lifelong commitment to education and progressive social causes.

Local 3642's membership appreciation day

On Monday, November 1, 2021, CWA Local 3642 held a membership appreciation day in the RDU Res cafeteria. Despite a busy day of mandatory overtime, President Tammy Scott and volunteers Mary Smith, Sharon Vaught, Kim Brugh, Nancy McLemore and Laurian Nobrega were able to meet with our OBRs and hand out goody/headset bags to show our appreciation for all the difficult and stressful work everyone has put in over the past two years. 

​

For those members who weren't able to pick up their bags, we plan to have another recognition day sometime in the next month. You can also pick up your bags at the Local, Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. if you like.

​

A huge 'thank you' to the other volunteers who helped put this all together:

CWA 3642 Honors Cary's Emergency Workers on the 20th Anniversary of 9/11

On the 20th Anniversary of 9/11, CWA 3642's Community Committee collected donations from it's members to buy and serve lunch and dinner to Cary's Police Department, the firefighters at Station 3 and the EMTs. We did this to honor those that serve and protect our community on a daily basis in memory of those who we lost 20 years ago.

Thank you to all those who donated money, time and food for the event and to Mr. Paul at NY Pizza in Cary. A special thank you to Tammy Hux, Maria Clarke and Tammy Scott for organizing such a nice way of letting our emergency workers know we appreciate them.

Everyone was so appreciative of the gesture and it was an honor to be a part of this wonderful day.
