***ELECTION UPDATE*** 

OQ Chemicals crew, 

We have earned the opportunity to vote UNION YES this Thursday and Friday (Dec 19 & 20) and win new workplace rights, representation and a permanent voice on the job. 

During this final stretch, expect management, even top executives, to ask for a “second chance” to do better and make things right. Expect scare tactics disparaging unions. They will try to separate and divide us. But remember: the company’s messaging is intended for one thing only: to keep us “at will” where management retains sole power and control. 

Look at the power we’ve already created by organizing. We’ve triggered “Status Quo” protections by filing for the union election, stopping further cuts planned by the company. And for the first time, management is coming to the workers to engage. 

We keep that power by sticking together and voting UNION YES. Status Quo protections become permanent, and the company must come to the bargaining table to negotiate with the workers. An overwhelming YES vote creates power at the table to secure a strong contract that we are all proud of. Let’s win this! 

Solidarity, 

OQ Chemicals Organizing Committee & IUOE Local 564
