Monthly Meeting  A Shift

Monday, July 8th, @ 7:00 PM


Brothers & Sisters:

On behalf of your Local 140 E-Board, I am pleased to announce that, the Civil Service Commission voted to approve the pay plan for the upcoming budget with a amendment to include the reinstatement of the increments. The Metro City Council will approve and pass the reinstatement of our step increments starting July 1, 2013 AND a 1.5% across the board pay raise for ALL employees effective January 1, 2014. More details will be made available concerning the step increment reinstatement; however, you should expect to be promoted to the next step you would have been eligible for when the increments were frozen (i.e. if you are presently at step 2, then you will be promoted to step 3). We realize this does not fix the issue of those hired within the last five years making the same amount as those hired five years ago. Your E-Board is committed to address this inequity as we move forward.

Thank you to all who have spent countless hours pushing to reinstate our step increments! 

Fraternally,

Mark

                  HEALTH CARE REFORM INFORMATION

 

After decades of debate and months of back and forth in Congress, on March 23rd, President Obama signed a historic health insurance reform legislation into law. 

The big question now is, What does health care reform mean for fire fighters? 

The IAFF has developed the attached health care reform fact sheet with important information about what the new health care reform law means for you and your family.
