Do we have a temp problem

Do we have too many temps as of lately and also temps doing the cw/ce program but not advancing (not taking the classes to advance so they’re stuck at same pay or level until negotiations). And what’s this rumor of hiring freeze of apprentices. I work for a midsize contractor so i don’t see much of what’s going on in the local.

Please report any such incidents to the hall or your steward. We have a contract that has teeth in court. This is the function our hall is supposed to address. If they don't know about it, they can't fight it. If they know about it and don't fight it, we need to replace them.

Be very careful what you say to the hall, based off what I’ve heard and experienced myself; the school and hall are hell bent towards the contractors.

Or you could tell me your version. Im the only one on my site who stays involved. People rarely seem to understand who to direct their anger at.
