False Guarantees

We received this letter signed by Conway big wigs. It was full of guarantees and false promises. This letter doesn't really mean anything. Should we vote the union down the company will pretend this letter never existed. Conway has the gall to call the union liars but they themselves are worse. It's time to get off the fence and take a stand! Conway has made billions off our hard work, it's time we make them share the wealth. A yes vote will give us a legally, binding contract. We will be voting in the right to negotiate working conditions, wages, health benefits, job protection, and a possible pension.
NOF employees don't let management intimidate you. We know they are breaking the law by trying to bribe us one by one, trying to threaten closures, and many more underhanded tricks. They are nothing more than thugs.

THIS IS NOT A CONTRACT                                                              This was given at (UBF) Bakersfield, CA These guarantees mean nothing This was given at (NMF) Miami, FL  The Reality of Conway's Termination Policy

711—Termination of Employment  Policy Number: 711 I) Purpose & Scope  To state the company's policy regarding termination of employment. This policy applies to all  employees of Con-way Freight (CWF).  II) Policy  Employees are expected to conduct themselves in such a way that termination of their  employment is neither requested nor necessitated. The term of any employment is necessarily  indefinite and at will. Employees are free to leave at any time, for any reason or cause, with or without notice, just as CWF is free to terminate an employee's employment at any time, for any reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice.  111—Personnel Policies & Procedures  Policy Number: 111  I) Purpose & Scope  The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines for the preparation, revision, publication  and distribution of personnel policies and procedures at Con-way Freight Inc. This policy applies  to all employees of Con-way Freight Inc. (CWF).  II) Policy  It is the policy of CWF to develop and maintain appropriate policies and procedures (P&P's) on  personnel administration and related topics to provide reasonable standards, uniform application,  and general guidance for CWF management use. As such, these Personnel Policies and  Procedures are not a contract and no employment contractual obligations on the part of Con-way  Freight shall arise as a result of the publication of such policies and procedures.  Neither these Personnel Policies and Procedures nor any other publication or communication by  any management representative, either written or oral, made at the time of hire or during the  course of employment or at the time of termination, is intended in any way to create such an  employment contract.  All offers of employment and all continued employment with the company are mutually  understood to be “employment at will”. This means that CWF has the right to terminate employment at any time for any reason, with or without notice, just as an employee has the right  to terminate employment with CWF at any time for any reason. The terms and conditions of  employment with CWF may be modified at the sole discretion of CWF, with or without cause, with  or without notice. Examples of the types of terms and conditions of employment which are within  the sole discretion of CWF include but are not limited to the following: promotions, demotions,  transfers, hiring decisions, compensation, benefits, qualification, discipline, or any other term or  condition of employment. Other than the President of CWF, no one has authority to make any  arrangement for employment other than for employment “at will” or to make any agreement  limiting CWF’s discretion to modify terms and conditions of employment. No implied contract  concerning any employee related decision or term or condition of employment can be established  by any statement, conduct, policy or practice. Only the President of CWF has authority to make  any such arrangement or agreement or modify any such arrangement or agreement and then  only in writing personally signed by him/her.  Because these Personnel Policies and Procedures are unilateral rather than contractual, CWF  retains the right to apply, modify, revise, or delete any policy or procedure as it deems necessary  or appropriate, at any time, with or without notice. CWF also retains the right to approve or  disprove an exception to any policy or procedure by company management with the express  authority to do so as outlined within that specific P&P or as noted below. Nothing herein shall be  deemed to interfere with any rights employees have under applicable state or Federal law.

                                                                                                                                          

Without unions, who will fight for the working class?
