Robo-Dial Installed

Thursday, January 08, 2009

REDDING - UPEC has completed the next phase of it’s member communication devices this week with the installation of a “robo-dial” unit. This unit allows the Local to record a message and send it to the membership via telephone. Calls would be made by UPEC’s computer begining at 5:30pm and ending no later than 9:00pm. Recorded calls could be made for meetings of specific bargaining units, bargaining teams, stewards and local wide. “We know that most people don’t like recorded phone calls so we will keep them to a minimum and messages short as possible”, stated Business Manager Chris Darker. UPEC effort to provide fast and informative communication to it’s members began about two years ago as funding allowed. Affiliated Associations may request UPEC Staff to send robo calls to their members as well.
