Osco management has been distributing a summary of its contract offer to pharmacists. But the company’s handout does not tell the whole story. “No matter how the company tries to dress up its proposal, the truth is that they haven’t listened to pharmacists and they don’t care about what matters most to you,” said John T. Coli, Secretary-Treasurer of Local 727.
In an attempt to completely eviscerate employees’ rights and weaken the bargaining unit, funeral industry giant Service Corporation International opened negotiations with Teamsters Local 727 on June 20 by proposing a staggering 90 changes to the contract covering Chicago-area funeral directors, embalmers and drivers.
Osco management is attempting to force pharmacists to work mandatory overtime in order to attend meetings to discuss the company’s contract proposal — a clear violation of the collective bargaining agreement.
ased on pharmacists’ feedback, the Local 727 Bargaining Committee presented its final offer to the company on June 14. In response, the company presented its offer, which pharmacists will now vote on via mail ballot. However, Osco’s last offer fails to address pharmacists’ concerns.
CVS pharmacists have expressed disgust over the company’s latest contract proposals, which still include radical concessions such as mandatory 12-hour shifts, forcing pharmacists to perform work on uncompensated time and meager wage increases.
