*Bring two copies of Your Collective Bargaining Agreement Contract*

We intend this training to be interactive and practical. We ask that each Local/police department representative bring two hard copies of your Collective Bargaining Agreement or email a copy of your Contract in advance of the meeting to Gia at gronan@sandulligrace.com

This will enable us to discuss real situations and answer questions regarding your Labor Contract language and your “what if” scenarios.

WHILE PARTICIPATION IS NOT NECESSARY, IT WILL ADD TO EVERYONE’S EXPERIENCE AND WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE IT!

If time permits, we will help interpret the Contract provisions covering your Local’s grievance processing and appealing discipline. Any issues with registration, please contact Julia at: jmp@masscop.org, (Office) 508-581-9336
