Emcon: Formal mediation begins in December

Your negotiating team filed for formal mediation after the employer’s last—and final—unacceptable wage offer. We will meet with the mediator on Dec. 8 and 9 and, if necessary, December 18 and 19. 

What happens next

Ideally, mediation will result in a tentative agreement which we can bring to you for a ratification vote. 

If mediation does not result in a deal, or if recommendations are not made by the mediator, we will enter a 14-day cooling off period. After the cooling off period ends, we will be in a position to take a strike vote. 

Please talk with your coworkers about your options if we do not reach a deal through mediation. It is important that we stand together and fight for the wages and benefits we deserve. 

Please watch for further updates in the coming weeks.
