WAGE FREEZE


WAGE FREEZE?


This so called "freeze" does not take into account our possible health benefit cost increase, nor reflect rising inflation. Our take home pay would decrease with this proposed wage freeze.

We need to gather our solidarity and let union contractors know that we will not accept a further diminished wage, especially in the paint trade where our wages have limped in a stagnant form for close to 20 years.

The painters deserve the same respected fair contract for their labor as our fellow allied trades

TAPERS
FLOOR COVERERS
GLAZIERS

All walked away from contract negotiation without a wage freeze, and actually increased there wage.
