AT&T announced a lay off today which will affect 131 of our brothers and sisters across the nation. The total amount of members affected in Local 3250’s jurisdiction is 15 and they are all located in Georgia. The Company is offering a VTP in selected surplused titles, which may relieve some of the impact of this forced lay off. Again, there are no members in Locals 3250’s jurisdiction affected by this lay off announcement in Tennessee, Florida, and North and South Carolina.
The following is the Business Unit, Title, GCA and Surplus Number announced by AT&T for this current layoff and VTP. Business Unit – Business Enterprise Worldwide Customer Care Reports Clerk – GCA (324) - Alpharetta, GA - 2
Special Operations Clerk – GCA (323) – Atlanta, GA – 2
CSDG Assembler – GCA (323) – Atlanta, GA – 3
Senior Operations Clerk – GCA (323) – Atlanta, GA – 1
Communications Tech – GCA (323) – Atlanta, GA - 7 This completes the titles being surplused in Local 3250’s jurisdiction. It is unfortunate that AT&T has not accepted the Union’s proposals to make planned force adjustments by using the contractor – workforce and halting their outsourcing. We will be supporting our affected brothers and sisters with financial counseling, the Alliance and the AT&T Resource Center. We will keep you informed of any updates or changes concerning this lay off declaration. In unity there is strength, Roy Hegenbart
President
