  Members of Teamsters Local 769 also have rights under the Collective Bargaining Agreement. The Collective Bargaining Agreement is a written agreement between the union and your employer, and your employer is obligated to follow the Agreement. It does not a suggest ways to handle rules and situations, but is a  binding contract that must be followed.

   If you do not have a copy of the contract, ask your Shop Steward for one.

If your employer violates the contract, you have the right to file a grievance. Contact you Shop Steward with any questions or concerns you may have.
