Discussions with EG&G continue

District Lodge 166 Directing Business Representative Johnny Walker met today with EG&G Manager of Labor Relations Lester Jordan. The two engaged in wide-ranging discussions relative to ISC workforce requirements and the process for current JBOSC employees transitioning to ISC. DBR Walker characterized the talks as constructive and encouraging. Manpower requirements are uncertain at this time. This Union will continue to meet with ISC contractor representatives and assist them in any way possible. Please alert your friends and co-workers to this site as it remains the best means of communicating with our membership. As we learn more we will post the information on this site.

Need Help With Your Resume?

We understand some current JBOSC employees don't have access to a computer or are experiencing problems submitting their electronic resumes to EG&G/Yang. We are here to help.
We will have folks at the Union Hall this Sunday (7/20) beginning at 2pm to assist you. All we ask is you bring a written resume (to the best of your ability) and we will set up an e-mail address for you and assist you in submitting your resume. We will use the computers at the Hall. The Union Hall is located at 271 Taylor Avenue, Cape Canaveral immediately East of the Cape Canaveral recreation complex. See you at 2pm.

Current JBOSC Employees

Following further discussions with ISC transition representatives they have requested we take additional steps in the resume process. They are asking we submit resumes to EG&G and Yang. They tell us once your on-line resume is submitted they will generate an on-line application to your e-mail address to be completed by you and returned via e-mail. I have attached the links to the resume sights. The requisition number is EGG30165. If you are unable to submit a resume on-line for any reason, please contact Lew Jamieson (321-446-7092) or Murray Caldwell (321-794-5993) and we will assist you in submitting your resume. .I know this process has been confusing to us all and appears as though the companies and the Union can't decide how this process should work. We can only request you recognize the companies are very busy with the transition and are working with this Union to affect an orderly transition. I can assure you Johnny Walker, Murray Caldwell and myself are in daily contact with the transition team and providing the companies with any assistance they request.
