August Labor Management

Issue: Uniforms
Expect: uniforms to begin to be delivered next week. (August 25th)

Issue: Posting of the schedule
Expect: the schedule to be posted one hour prior to the shift to allow for changes. Management has requested this concession on the account of all the moves from the last bid, honoring scheduled vacations, and an increase in writ traffic. This issue will be revisited in a couple months when things have had time to shake-out.

Issue: Echo unit intercom
placed and supplies are now on hand for future repairs.

Issue: Caustics
Expect: A new delivery system that limits resident movement.

Issue: Handbooks, policies, procedures
Expect: A new handbook within a month. New procedures are being integrated into cycle training. Directives are still being updated.

Issue: Health and Safety Committee
Committee has been formed and has now met twice.
