To the Members of UAW Local 42,
Thank you to everyone for your incredible support throughout this election, and to all the candidates who stepped up. It has been incredible to watch the process as we continue to build our great UAW Local 42.
We want to invite everyone to a special union meeting on Sunday, May 31 at 4:00 p.m. at IBEW Local 175, located at 3922 Volunteer Dr, Chattanooga, TN 37416. Please join us as we officially install all our newly elected officers. All members and family are welcome to attend, and we hope to see a great turnout.
All elected officers will officially assume their duties on Sunday and will start their new roles at the plant on Monday, June 1. Management has already been notified regarding which members will be transitioning from their current jobs into their new roles, as well as those from the bargaining committee who will be returning to the shop floor.
We are happy to announce that we are now accepting resumes for the negotiated appointed positions outlined in our Collective Bargaining Agreement! If you are a member in good standing and want to apply, please submit your resume to one of us by the close of business on Friday, May 29. We're looking to fill these roles quickly and get to work.
Please Note: If appointed, you must be able to attend our monthly union meetings and be available to work any of the three shifts as required. Appointees who fail to meet these essential obligations may be removed from the position.
