Great news for the Lts, we have it on good authority that you will be included in the bargaining unit for supervisors, when the bargaining unit is finalized. So what now? If you know Sgts, Lts, or FS 4s, that wish to have FOP bargain for them, now is the time to sign the authorization forms. Correctional supervisors you must understand that simply electing a union is not enough. You will need to join the union as there are roughly 150 of you in the entire state. If only 50 of you join FOP, when it comes time for bargaining you will be very limited in what you can do in terms of demanding a fact finding. You will be limited in what grievances can be fought at arbitration by an attorney. The numbers do not lie, it takes a lot of money to pay legal fees. Your earning power is greatly diminished by not getting all 150 of you to join and contribute toward your collective future. These are vital things to keep in mind when you decide whether or not to part with $40 per check. Invest in your future and the future of your bargaining unit by joining FOP Nevada C.O. Lodge 21 today. Not to mention the protection that FOP provides with the plan attorneys who are available to represent you when you are accused of wrongdoing.
