My office has been notified by Safety Pass at CSATF that an extremely large number of Local 44 members have not completed the required "A2 – Environmental Safety Class"
If you are one of these members you should have received a letter from Safety Pass/CSATF notifying you that you have until January 31, 2011 to complete this required course. In this letter CSATF states that as of that date if you have not completed the course you, "will be suspended from the Industry Experience Roster and may be considered ineligible for employment".
Notifications from my office as well as CSATF have been forwarded to the membership since this requirement became initiated, unfortunately far to many have let these notifications go unanswered, now there is very little time left to ignore this requirement.
Please do not let this happen to you! I have requested Safety Passport to double the class sizes to accommodate our membership, and they have agreed to make this accommodation, however we have no control over the deadline date they have set.
You can register for classes online at: www.csatf.org look for the Safety Pass online link. Or call Safety Pass directly at: 818-847-0040 ext. 1200.
Do not risk your employment status, do it today!
Fraternally,
Ed Brown
