Reply to comment by PGids in Chipotle to pay former Augusta workers $240,000 for breaching labor laws by benpinette

>who’s CBA allowed them to be stripped of PTO for jury duty, bereavement and military service.

This is false. The Hospital tried to take them away then gave them back (including retroactively) because it was blatantly a violation of labor law for them to take those benefits.

I stand corrected; that happened about a month ago. Figured that would have made the news/social media rounds like the story of them loosing them did

They quite literally left off the CBA as a paid benefit though. There is no labor law stating any that has to be paid by a private employer; only time off given without penalty. I’m not saying it wasnt a real dick move to take those benefits, just to be clear.

This article states it was straight up forgotten. Every other article makes statements of negotiation which means a memorandum of agreement was drafted and signed which means it wasn’t on the original contract because someone fucked up

I sit in on similar meets a few times a month as a union employee, for what it’s worth.
