Waste Management: Shame on you!
Waste Management of Camden NJ tells their employees at contract time, "no pay raises for 2 years". Claiming we make too much..
Why is this important?
The Camden facility is wasting money that they claim they do not have for their workers to earn a fair wage. No pay raises for 2 yrs. Claiming their drivers are "the highest paid in the industry", while failing to realize the industry, as a whole, is underpaid!!! A new 55" flatscreen TV was bought & is collecting dust in the break room. New O.B.U. ( On Board Units ) were bought when there were O.B.U's already in the trucks. Company spent money on "drivecam"- Cameras mounted in vehicles to watch their employees behind the wheel. Many have been fired for "events" behind the wheel. Some justified, Many were not. New cell phones were bought when there were already cell phones in use. Also, Medical bennefits are getting worse every year. The District Manager said "benefits are based on a 55 hour work week". Many aren't working 55 hrs. per week to be able to afford healthcare. Not to mention Waste Management owed Wheelabrator was just sold for 1.94 BILLION dollars. Share holders & management are benefitting from major profits & squeezing their employees dry. Employees are the backbone of the company.
