New Contract Negotiations for our Labor Management Agreement (LMA) will be starting soon! Let us know what changes you would like to see. Chief Negotiator will be Ricardo Miranda, NFFE 1450 President. Send comments to Ricardo! Our LMA can be accessed under "Links").

**********************************************


Did you know that being a member of the bargaining unit is different than being a Dues Paying Union Member? Some Federal employees think that unions must represent them whether or not they choose to join. That is not true.

The law says the union’s duty to represent a non-member is limited, and that the union must only negotiate and administer collective bargaining agreements. Therefore, Dues Paying Members can be represented by the Union in, for example, EEO, MSPB and Workers Comp cases. In contrast, non-members would not be represented by the Union. Comprehensive union representation goes only to those who are union members.

MEMBER BENEFITS:

Member benefits are noted at www.nffedental.com, www.nffe.org and www.iamaw.org. To enroll you would choose either NFFE or IAM (International Association of Machinists) and you will need your membership number which is printed on your Union Member card.
