Dear Shaw’s/Star Employee:
This link on our web site is designed to inform employees not yet represented by Local
791 of facts and figures that vitally affect your employment. Many benefits provided non-union employees differ in significant ways
from those guaranteed by Local 791 contracts with Shaw’s/Star. This web site will detail comparisons in health insurance costs, pension
and retirement benefits, grievance and arbitration and other areas.
I and the staff and members of Local 791 are committed to
bringing all Shaw’s/Star employees under union contract so that all may share the benefits and protections of Local 791 agreements.
Unfortunately, Shaw’s/Star management does not share this vision, and the company has taken steps to prevent you from learning about
the benefits of union representation. This web site is intended to help us communicate with you in these matters.
We also plan
question and answer sections that will address your questions and concerns about working for Shaw’s/Star and representation by Local
791.
I believe that information is power. I’m confident that after you compare Shaw’s non-union benefit package with the benefits
provided in the union contract, you will agree that "The work's the same - the
Sincerely,
Russell
Regan, President
UFCW Local 791
