Members of Cytec Group,
We have met with the
potential buyers and an agreement has been signed between USW Local 13-447 Cytec
Group and the potential buyers that assures that the buyer will assume
the collective bargaining agreement until it’s expiration on June 23,
2012. We have agreed to bargain in good faith to achieve a benefits package that
in the aggregate is substantially equivalent in economic value to the benefits
currently enjoyed by the Bargaining Unit employees. The initial meetings and the
subsequent negotiations were positive and upbeat and will hopefully remain so as
we move through the process of bringing the best benefits package we can back to
the membership for its approval. We will keep you updated as much as possible.
It is important in this critical time to stay together and to keep our
minds on whatever task we are performing at work and home so that we stay
accident and injury free.
Thanks for your support and
solidarity,
Brent Petit
Cytec Group Chairman
