AS9100 Obligations

I started a family this year and my wife came with a daughter. Going from single to a full family, my insurance costs will increase around $500 a month for an insurance that is utterly useless in most cases.

In what world is this ok? I am going to have to leave the company to make enough for my family to survive.

With constant talk about being behind schedule and it's implications, people leaving due to RTO, loss of 4/10s, and this issue, how can we say we are satisfying our 7.1.4 obligations? Is it time to hold the company accountable for their inaction and poor treatment of our people? How do we without a union? At least in the market I reside, the company has utterly refused to pay our front-line workers enough to afford housing, heathcare, and frankly the ability to lead a financially stable life and the company is starting to buckle just like our customers have. How long until we are in the same boat as Boeing, or are we already there and just better at concealing it because we don't have a union?

We need to do better, and our top leadership needs take a real hard look at what aerospace manufacturing actually needs to look like.

Take care of your people, and they will take care of you. If we can't take care of our families with the work we do, where do you think our priorities are?

Insurance is terrible and you’re forced to pay for it. If you’re not going to make deductible anyway, ask for the privet pay cost. My doc visit is $100 on insurance but only $70 if I don’t use insurance
I’ve seen where MRI was $2k on insurance but only $700 on privet pay

Well, for better or worse, the American people have spoken. And it doesn't look like Kamala Harris is going to do sh-t.

My guess is that AS9100 7.1.4 doesn't keep the Sr. Leadership team or the BoD up at night...

To the one making the comment about the one making the comment about your people, you missed your opportunity buddy, the election is today, you probably would have won if you had thrown your hat in there. I love people that have it all figured out.

You should move to Canada or start your own company and give stuff away to employees.

To the one making the comment about "your people" ...that is exactly what is wrong with this country and why we will crumble in an actual near-peer fight. Mentality like this is ki-ling America. We are not slaves, but we are treated more like it every day, and it's people like you, bending to it, that is the source of the problem. Business should be held accountable, particularly in the defense space, and is exactly why 7.1.4 is there, but people are too afraid to pull that card unless they have a union to back them up.

look at the bright side, kamala is going to double the child tax credit

The company is like a New Zealand submarine.

you aren't their people, nobody you work with is, voluntary employment, you accepted the terms that is what they will tell you without telling you. you and your family are your people.
