PHARMACY
The Teamsters Local 727 Bargaining Committee presented a comprehensive contract proposal based on pharmacists’ demands as negotiations with Osco management opened April 12. The union proposals are aimed at increasing pharmacy technician support, guaranteeing overlap and eliminating superfluous tasks that take away from their primary job duties while compromising patient safety.
After three full days of contract negotiations between the Teamsters Local 727 Bargaining Committee and CVS management, very little progress has been made toward reaching a new agreement for about 150 Chicago-area pharmacists.
CVS management made no movement from its unreasonable proposals during the second negotiation meeting with the Teamsters Local 727 Bargaining Committee on April 7.
The Teamsters Local 727 Bargaining Committee came together April 4 to prepare for contract negotiations with Osco management, which are set to begin April 12.
While the Teamsters Local 727 Bargaining Committee presented proposals to address safety concerns through improved working conditions, more technician hours and increased overlap, CVS management demanded across-the-board cuts to pharmacists’ benefits with diminished protections as contract negotiations opened on March 24.
