Bargaining Updates Around CWA - Piedmont and DIRECTV

Piedmont Airlines

The CWA bargaining committee met with Piedmont Airlines last week to exchange proposals and continue fighting for a strong contract for passenger service agents that secures a livable wage for all in every station. In a bargaining priorities survey earlier this year, members identified higher wages, safety, and paid time off among their top priorities.

Piedmont agents across more than 70 stations from Florida to Alaska are standing up to show the company they are all-in for a fair contract. Click here to view more photos of Piedmont agents mobilizing at stations across the country.

DIRECTV Customer Care

CWA members who work at DIRECTV Customer Care in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas have reached a tentative agreement with the company. The agreement includes substantial raises, improvements to overtime, and job security commitments for all titles, and it preserves health care and pension benefits.

Details about the agreement are being shared with members and a contract ratification vote will take place in the coming weeks.
