Agenda Item # 13

ASSOCIATION OF FLIGHT ATTENDANTS-CWA, AFL-CIO FORTY THIRD BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING APRIL 28 – 30, 2015
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA

 

 

SUBJECT:    Election Process – Staff Restrictions (Section IX.F.12.a.(3))

STATEMENT OF QUESTION:

Should the existing language be clarified so that it is understood that “staff” includes employees of AFA-CWA and any personnel under supervision of the Ballot Certification Committee ?

SOURCE AND DATE SUBMITTED:      International President – February 27, 2015

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

During certain election ballot counting, it has become a concern that there may not be enough AFA-CWA staff to support the needs of the Committee during a large ballot count. Additionally, with electronic balloting, it would be beneficial to have support from the vendor providing the services for questions, clarifications, and assistance with the programs and processes.

PROPOSED RESOLUTION:

WHEREAS, the environment for balloting is ever changing; and,

WHEREAS, it may become necessary to have additional qualified support during a large ballot count,

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that Section IX.F.12.a.(3) be amended as follows:

(3)     Staff Restriction – Only AFA-CWA staff or authorized personnel and balloting vendors may assist the Committee during the count.
