Dear Brothers and Sisters of Masters, Mates & Pilots,
The Licensed Deck Officers (LDOs) at Alaska Tanker Company (ATC) and Overseas Shipping Group (OSG) voted in a free and fair election to be represented by Masters, Mates, and Pilots (MM&P), effective January 1, 2024, and October 22, 2024, respectively. Despite their legal obligation to negotiate in good faith, both companies have refused to come to the bargaining table.
We urge you to click this link and sign the petition addressed to CEO Samuel Norton and President & COO Tim DiPietropolo, demanding that they respect our rights and engage in fair negotiations.
Your support makes a difference. Together, we are stronger.
In Solidarity,
General Executive Board
Masters, Mates, and Pilots
