Frontier Strike Is Over
According to a news release from the Communication Workers of America, a contract agreement has been reached between the CWA and Frontier Communications.
About 1,400 members of the CWA will return to work by March 28. They will be briefed on the agreement and will hold a vote in the coming weeks.
According to the CWA release the agreement “protects jobs in West Virginia and Ashburn, Va.”
“I could not be more proud of our members,” said Ed Mooney, Vice President of CWA District 2-13. “Going on strike is never easy. But they knew what was at stake for their co-workers and for their communities. Thanks to their strength and unity, our bargaining team has reached an agreement with Frontier that will ensure that they will continue to have good, family supporting jobs.”
According to the news release, “During the strike, CWA members received an outpouring of support from community members and legislators, and they were joined by hundreds of supporters at a rally in Charleston on Saturday.”
Furthermore, “CWA thanks Frontier’s customers for their patience and support during the strike. We look forward to returning to work and addressing the service issues that have arisen over the past few weeks as soon as possible.”
