IMPORTANT MESSAGE
Staying a member in good standing
Article 16 of the UAW Constitution
Laid off members are considered to be in good standing for the first six months.
What to do after that?
Use the address and membership update page each month thereafter.
So the Company has agreed to honor ‘homesteads’ late Tuesday as they have in the past. Everyone that was displaced as a Result of involuntary displacement will be given consideration to return to their “homestead” when seniority allows it. We stuck together and argued our case and told them it was best for all involved. The bottom line is we need experienced employees to build the best trucks for our customers. I am proud of our Union and our plant. UAW Local 5285 is the original UAW Local in NC and home of the best truck builders in the world.
When WE STICK TOGETHER WE ARE UNION STRONG!! Solidarity Forever!!
