CWA/AT&T Mobility National Bargained Benefit Plan: Report 1

The CWA and Company bargaining teams met via phone conference today to kick off bargaining for a successor agreement for healthcare benefits. This NBBP Agreement covers all four CWA contracts with Mobility.

Both CWA and AT&T made opening remarks (shown above). Our committee told the Company that we are seeking to make the healthcare more affordable and ensure that all Mobility members, no matter where they live and work, have access to a good provider network.

The Company passed a proposal to the committee and went over it in detail today. While the company claims to want to provide good healthcare, they want us to pay more for it. While we wait for usage data from AT&T, we will continue to meet via phone as a Committee and with the CWA research department.

In Solidarity,

The CWA 2016 Mobility NBBP Bargaining Committee
