Please! All of Verizon safety guidelines are for CRAFT employees, and only enforced for disciplinary purposes. For instance, thirty day suspensions without pay for failure to wear safety glasses in a customers home while NOT performing hazardous work have been handed out by management. Six thousand dollar forfeiture! Who does this in corporate America to low level associates? Or any company for that matter? That should be a topic discussion in the media. This is the unions opportunity to address this and expose Verizon management for who the really are.
Verizon gave its employees domestic abuse training to ensure it's employees don't verbally or physically abuse their spouse or family members, while at the same time ignoring work place verbal and mental abuse perpetrated by it's low level management team members. Most of which lack the basic skill sets to deal with people, and lack the ability to be leaders.
There are hundreds if not thousands of these over the top forfeitures over the last 10 years. Give backs taken by the company in the form of monetary theft. Yes, flat out theft. What else would you call it, concern for safety? What other company exacts such god awful evil forfeitures that extend into the thousands. Many times these are first time offenders.
Verizon doesn't care about safety during a work stoppage, which is blatantly evident with these poorly trained and equipped EWA's. I just hope these EWA's survive Verizon's blatant disregard for their safety and their families concerns the their loved one coming home in one piece. Those that do will likely face a RIF in the near future.
Jia - thank you for that post
All snide remarks and kidding aside we ( the union fat lazy clowns as some would calls us ) have a responsibility to these people to make sure no one is seriously hurt the companies not doing it its our moral obligation. A heads up is deserved.
Working unsafe? How would you feel if I sent you a picture of Douglas Lalima from Brooklyn? Was he working unsafely, or was it just a tragic accident? If you really see someone in harm'sway, you need to find a way to be humane and make sure they are safe. Vests, boots chocks that's all fair game, but not high voltage accidents. No way.
Only unsafe work! Techs not doing anything is good for the union.
Point taken
What is it you union guys want from a Manager. I thought you would be happy with those working slow and wasting time. Now your videoing it to mock.... Guess everyone should start working fast and efficiently.
I saw a drunk union guy lighting his cigar near the propane tank used to grill his hot dogs on the picket line in Yonkers! I took a photo and will send it to you
@H5Vm2mj-ccg that is actually a good thing. You want the managers talking and not fixing.
Same thing pictures....video...report it
And what should I do if I see a manager working unsafe?
Just saw a Verizon truck in my neighborhood....Two guys talking for 30 minutes or more.... got video... will be on YouTube in a bit
More like convicing these nice old ladies to switch to a more patriotic company like AT&T or T-Mobile where they won't be overcharged, and supporting a company that supports American workers.
It's 'Unsafely' you drooling union illiterate. Go back to intimidating old ladies at wireless stores you inbred tard.
I'd rather see you fall off of a pole or get fired, but since you are posting here, then you are not entrusted enough to take care of a customer. Or, just too much of a girly boy to be able to handle a strike.
Anyone who sees a union thug troll, vandelizing properly
Take a picture and report it.
Get them fired.
