IAM Local Lodge 774

You can find a copy of the Declaration form that District Lodge 70 President Cornell Beard referred to in the “Attorney Update” video Thursday, October 21, 202, below.

A video to update members with information related to the attorney that’s been retained to help combat company denials of religious and medical accommodation requests to the Covid-19 mandate for federal contractors.

We have provided an example of an actual intake interview for a religious accommodation at Textron Aviation.

A video to clarify any misunderstandings of the Tuesday, Oct. 19, update.

If you are denied Medical or Religious Accommodation/Exemptions by Textron Aviation Inc, DynCorp, Flight Safety Defense Corporation, TRDI, Yulista, or Valiant, please notify your union representative or contact District Lodge 70, ASAP!

If the company asks you to have a “private” phone conversation regarding a religious or medical accommodation request, ask them to submit their questions to you in writing or let them know you want a Union Steward present and document the conversation. #StandinSolidarity
