WBZ/WSBK-TV shop meeting

Posted On: May 04, 2009 (13:00:33)

A shop meeting was held this past Saturday - May 2nd to go over the status of the current negotiations at WBZ/WSBK-TV.  A number of people asked to have the actual proposals from both the company and from the union to be posted on our web site.  This has been done, and they can be located under the Member Resource section labeled Bargaining Updates.  Several people have volunteered to serve on the Action Committee and if anyone else, who was unable to attend the meeting is interested, please either call or write to us asap.   At this point we are scheduled to meet with the company again on May 18th and 19th.  Please send us your comments or questions regarding the proposals.

NTSB makes Helicopter Safety Recommendations

Posted On: Jan 30, 2009 (15:45:37)
On January 28th, the National Transportation Safety Board issued ten recommendations to the Federal Aviation Administration regarding electronic news gathering for Helicopters.  This came about directly because of the July, 2007 Arizona midair collision involving two ENG helicopters in which four people died.  The cause of this accident was determined to be the fact that both pilots were involved in reporting on a police pursuit on the ground at the same time as they were flying and listening to a variety of radio sources.  The principal result of the NTSB investigation was to require ENG operators to assign reporting responsibilities to someone other than the flying pilot.  A synopsis of the Board's report can be found at www.ntsb.gov  under 'Board Meetings'   
Basic Dues Increase

Posted On: Nov 26, 2008 (12:17:19)
As of January 1, 2009 there will be an increase of one dollar ($1.00) for all "BA" members throughout the IBEW.  This comes as a result of a vote taken at the 37th International Convention in 2006. This local will be notifying all stations to make this adjustment in the automatic dues withdrawals.  For those of you who pay direct, please make note of this change and make the appropriate modifications to your dues payments.
