To solve that we need a level of trust that both sides will adhere to the negotiated intent. So what is that intent? Well for forever it has been unspoken and hasn’t been abused and it’s worked. Until the last 3 years.
Leave 4a2c language in place and draft up a 1 page memorandum of intent clearly laying out the purpose of it, when it can be implemented and more importantly when it cannot. And for the love of god write down the exact formula of the SAM and put in on paper with signatures.
I love how delicate you are in this post to keep 4A2C. I take it you’re junior and looking out for your best interest. May I suggest you put that same thought into our current pension plan. We all can win if we hang in there together.
Don’t be so press to get rid of a pension plan many of us would like to keep. We just want it improved just as you want the language in 4a2c improved.
