Phillips 66 has posted updates to the ongoing labor negotiations. These updates dates contain incomplete information.
The company has posted salary offers, changes to the holiday schedule and a revised time of progression for operations.
What it hasn’t done is post what demands it making in return for these offers.
What are you hiding P66?

@2fc lmao they sold their soul for an extra bit of signing bonus
A lot of the in house maintenance unions broke the picket line. It is going to be interesting to see how it goes.
Can anyone disclose how the agreed-upon contract differs from previously rejected?
The return to work date was set in the contract renewal. Quit throwing around drama like “still locking them out”. Got to get everyone back on the schedule and make a plan to return them to work. Can’t just launch straight into everything the next day.
The employees have ratified the new contract. Why is the company continuing to lock them out?
agreement? sounds like its going to a vote next week
@h5 sounds like our ta team. Does Ramsey offer how to manage ta’s??
Did the union mention they refused to take the companies offer for a rolling extension to avoid this situation?
Labour at these other P66 refineries has 8 to 10 months to get their finances in order. Before that the contract terms have always been 4 or 5 years. If they can’t get, their money situation squared away in that time, they have bigger issues. Financial experts like Dave Ramsey have been telling people since the 1990’s that they should have 3 to 6 months of salary saved up. It’s called Adulting 101.
Failing to plan is planning to fail.
Pi-s poor planning produces pi-s poor performance.
Consider both BP Whiting and now P66 Bayway as a “shot across the bow”. P66 knows that a few other refineries have their contract negotiations next year. So it is a clear warning: “Take our first offer, OR ELSE!”
I’m not much of a poker player, me personally. I’m more of a baseball player. Regardless of who blinks first next year, I never swing at the first pitch.
Bartlesville shot their wad too soon. It just gave a six month plus notice to labour to stop living hand to mouth, squirrel some money away, and move whatever assets into something more liquid. Voting no on a contract offer and yes to a strike is way easier when you have your own personal safety net or war chest. It also gives tradesmen, tradeswomen, and operators time for their spouses to line up healthcare insurance through their work.
