Isn't this good news ? Doesn't it show that NSU supports better pay and benefits ? It doesn't support disruptive tactics. It doesn't do business with a company like Unicco which can't keep their own employees happy. If the goal is better pay and benefits - then NSU has done the just thing. If more than 60% of the Unico workers voted for the Union - Then only 30% didn't get hired by the new contractors... ? This means that lots of the folks that supported the Union were rehired. Perhaps only the "disruptive" folks were not hired by the new contractors. Besides - Don't those 100 folks still have a job with Unicco ? Why Can't they be reassigned to another Unicco contract ? Is there something that I'm missing here - that I don't know about ? <BR/> ___ It seems to me that the point is this: NSU had a contract with Unicco - then the relationship with Unicco became troublesome. So NSU didn't renew the contract with Unicco. Because of a special arrangement 200 people managed to be rehired by the new contractor to work at NSU. Again I ask - Why is this "good news" reported as "bad" ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23326204.post-73452624275354407882007-03-11T11:42:00.000-05:002007-03-11T11:42:00.000-05:00thanks, steve!thanks, steve!faculty for workplace justicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03855536005538886946noreply@blogger.com
