TellBlast keeps Unions in Touch!
It was late Thursday before Memorial Day, and 200 members of UFCW Local 1776 faced a contract that was about to expire. Negotiations on an extension were scheduled to go into the weekend, with the outcome uncertain. The Local’s members didn’t know if they would have jobs to return to after the holiday. Final word, if there was to be one, might not come until over the weekend. How would these workers know if their jobs were safe?
With TellBlast, Wendell W. Young, IV, President of UFCW 1776, was able to personally notify all of his members – in his own voice – just as soon as an agreement was reached on an extension late Friday night. At the moment the members received Young’s call, they knew that they could enjoy their weekend and count on being able to report to work on Tuesday. They knew their union was working hard for them. Today, Local 1776 officials continue to get positive feedback from members as they use TellBlast on a regular basis to keep in touch.
