Vision – Our vision for AFGE 1534 is as an effective advocate for you, the bargaining unit employees. When issues or concerns arise, we pledge to provide timely and effective representation to bargaining unit employees.

Change – It’s time for your Union to take a fresh look at the 1999 Labor-Management Agreement. Times have changed, and issues not even considered 10 years ago are now of vital concern.

Communication – AFGE 1534 is the voice for bargaining unit employees. We advocate for your best interests and work for your benefit. We will keep you informed on issues central to your careers, including:

· Outsourcing

· Third party contractors and personal services contractors

· Performance plans and pay-for-performance

· Alternative work schedules

Responsiveness – Our goal is to be transparent, responsive, and helpful. Together as a dedicated team we will work with the Chief Steward and the whole team of stewards on your behalf. We will meet deadlines, and we will use all the advocacy options that are available to address members’ needs and concerns.

Judgment – Out team has the combined years of work experience needed to provide members with the best guidance, counseling, referrals, and representation possible. We are here for you.

We Need Your Support! Please give us the opportunity to represent you. Your vote will enable us to represent and advocate on your behalf at the Department, just as National AFGE advocates for us on Capitol Hill. Together, we will work to keep public service honorable and the kind of employment of which we can be proud. Each of us has the honor of working for our country. We are a diverse group and each of us deserves respect for our work!
