CAMPAIGN UPDATE: REPUBLIC MANAGEMENT DISSES MECHANICS WITH ONLY A 30 CENT RAISESacrifices were made by all employees during the pandemic to keep Republic Airways afloat.
Without a voice at the table ensuring fairness, we will have to accept pennies on the dollar for our perceived worth to Republic management. Every day that passes and we are not unionized, our job security and your wages suffer. Sign an Authorization card today, gain that voice and see your true value! CAMPAIGN UPDATE: We are making solid progress in gaining more election authorization cards (a-cards). As a reminder, we need at least 50 percent of all Republic AMT and related workers, about 700 folks, to sign election authorization cards to petition the National Mediation Board (NMB) to conduct a union election. If you haven’t signed a card yet and want the right to vote, please sign your card today. Click here to request a card online. Please remember that your right to sign an election authorization card is protected under federal law. Republic management is prohibited by law from ever knowing who signed a card.

Wasn't this 30¢ raise part of the three year pay scale raise that started back in 2019? Also, isn't this pay scale to be re-evaluated in 2022? If you really want to unionize the RW MTX, maybe put in some real effort and stop grasping at straws. Instead of complaining about a scheduled pay raise, maybe focus on the actual benefits of joining IAM. Whining isn't going to get anyone on your side. Isn't it also possible that the reason that the Union vote failed, you can complain about the inclusion of other work groups all you want, is because RW MTX doesn't want IAM specifically representing them?

The union vote failed because the company got more departments assigned to the maintenance group that should not be voting on our behalf. IAM had over 50%. Now the company gets another year. You have people not qualified to do your job voting on your behalf.

The reason why the vote failed is because they hired a union busting law firm and was somehow able to include everyone in maintenance records, engineers and some management, all at headquarters, as eligible to vote. None of them work on aircraft, they deal with your paperwork.
