MEMBERS OF UAW LOCAL 2000 STRIKE DUTY
INSTRUCTIONS
(IN THE EVENT OF A NATIONAL OR LOCAL STRIKE)
National and local negotiations are
continuing. Since negotiations may continue past the deadline
without a strike, the membership will be kept informed through
future information bulletins.
In the event that a strike deadline
is given, official picket assignments will be located in the
plant on the bulletin boards near the turnstile entrances (please
do not remove them from the bulletin boards), at the local union
hall and on our web site at www.uawlocal2000.org. IT IS YOUR
OBLIGATION TO CONTACT THE STRIKE COMMITTEE FOR THE TIME AND DATE OF
YOUR STRIKE ASSIGNMENT.
