UPDATE ON COPPER DEMAND SCHEDULES!

The Local has been working with other locals throughout the state to address the drastic change in schedules that have have recently been posted.  The Company has agreed to extend the current schedule for one (1) week and add regular monday thru friday, 8 to 5 tours to the schedule and take away excessive number of relief tours.  This was a complaint from many of you and we are happy to annouce that the Local was able to push for this change.  The Company is claiming that the percentage of weekend tours is being changed to make it consistant in Childs' organization.  Even though the Company can contractually set these schedules, the Local feels that this is excessive and is continuing to push the Company to reduce the levels.  A new schedule should be going out for everyone to sign.
