Beyond WFA, the episode examines the impact of the four-day telework mandate on public service employees and the role unions play in advocating for fair workplace policies. Listeners will also learn how members can become more involved in their local union, ask for transparency during workforce adjustments, and advocate for themselves and their colleagues. Whether you are trying to understand the WFA process, navigate uncertainty in the workplace, or learn more about your rights as a union member, this episode provides practical guidance and insights from the leadership of CEIU Local 569.
