Here at ASA...
I could be wrong about union involvement, but the new medical plan is a clear violation of our contract...and now we get this memo...things that make you go hhhhmmmmm?
A couple of weeks ago I shared with you SkyWest, Inc.’s new health care strategy that would make the Definity HSA plan the only health care program available for ASA employees beginning 2012. As I’m sure you will agree, we could have done a better job of getting feedback from employees about the strategy prior to implementation. Since the announcement, we have received significant feedback about the need for ASA to continue offering an option for health care programs. As a result of that feedback I am working together with SkyWest, Inc. to come up with a go-forward strategy that does a better job of taking into consideration the concerns you have voiced.
Personally, I found nothing wrong with the new plan. For some folks with big families it was a shock and with a CBA in place, it was a non starter.
While I am not a flag-waving union type, I've always said not having a union in this industry is like living in a high crime area, without a gun in the house.
And if this good news trickles over to the Skywest side, like a few other things already have, you guys can say thanks by finding a way to bring back the moo-moo-cow in the ATL Moe's.
Tit for tat and all...
