Stand with FSO
MTA Board Negotiating Team
Your Field Services Organization needs your support!
The MTA Board Negotiating Team, your bargaining team, brought to the table a proposal to increase the length of our salary schedule from five steps to seventeen steps and to reduce the starting salary by 30%. They are also refusing to address FSO's priority issues of workload and racial justice.
In solidarity,
Field Services Organization

We ask our bargaining team, the MTA Board Negotiating Team, to uphold our union values by doing the following:
-Withdraw our proposal that extends the salary schedule to 17 steps and reduces the beginning salary.
-Address the serious issue of workload, which is necessary to best serve the needs of MTA locals and members.
-Address the FSO’s proposals on racial justice including setting aside money to train staff to support our locals as they engage in anti-racist work.
-Settle a fair contract that respects the work our Field Services Organization (FSO) staff does.
It is important that as MTA members we support the same standards we seek for our own members.
