Telephone Employees Get Good Pay
Employees of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph m t
pany are well paid and their wages compare favorably
with those; paid by other concerns in the community for
work requiring similar skill and training.
-1.1
Pacific Telephone and Tele
graph Company is still trying in every
way to avoid a telephone strike.'
We have offered to renew our pre
sent liberal contracts.
Butthe unions have made demands
for large increases jn wages.
In recognition that the public in
terest comes first and to eliminate any
reason for a telephone work stoppage
which would be a disaster for the pul-i
lie, the company has offered to submit
to arbitration the .question of wages,
which is the fundamental issue in dis
pute. Telephone Wage Rates
" Have Been Increased
58 Per Cent
Telephone wage rates are now the
highest in history. Thev have been in
creased on an average 58 per rent since
1941. The largest increases have leen
in recent years.
Since 1941 increases in wage levels
totaling $69,000,000 on an annual
basis have been put in effect by tliis
company.
These increases are in addition to
millions of dollars in regularly sched
uled raises given oiir employees. Thou
sands of our employees receive wage
increases as often as. every three
months. Other thousands .rereive in
creases every six months or every year.
Manv Advantage to
Sf
Telephone Jolp
These include steady work. Regu
lar wage increases. Cood working con
ditions. Holidays with pay. Vacation
with pay for one, two and three weeks.
depending on length of service. Side
ness and death benefits, and pensions.
Union demands -total about
$100,000,000 a year. This is equival
ent to an increase of .
one
' $45 per year Per Jl
40 percent increase in Vtl r
telephone rates
The demands of the unions would
increase the cost of providing tele
phone service by about $100,000,000
a year. This comes to more than '60
per cent of this company's wage pay
ments in 1946. It is five times our total
earnings in 1946. It would make our
total payroll more than all of ; the
money we took in last year. .
In terms of the average telephone'
bill, it amounts to $45.00. a year, for
every one of 2,300,000 telephone sub
scribers or a 40 per cent increase in all
telephone rates. f I , , '
We have been bargaining coopera
tively for years with the unions repre
senting our employees we have, been
doing it over recent weeks and we
are keeping the door open forwhat
ever further meetings arc necessary.
W want our employees to be well
paid.
' Wages that are too low are not fair
to employeeswho do the. work.
Wages that are too bigh are not
fair to the public who buy the ser
vice. f - ; .
We. believe that our offer ot arbi
t ration would- be fair to everyone.
There is no" excuse for a telephone
strike.
