Labor Services

Say Hello to Mr. Vandegrift.

 

Hardly a week goes by when we are not fielding questions or providing assistance, opinion, or advice on labor issues and basic workers’ rights.

 

A major portion of the work we do involves violations or alleged violations concerning federal and state laws governing the FLSA (Fair Labor Standard Act), Employment Discrimination, FMLA, Sexual Harassment, Workman’s Compensation, and Policy Violations.

 

Other Employee Organizations find it difficult to address these possible violations involving workers rights. They simply do not have the expertise or resources to answer member complaints involving FLSA, FMLA, EEO, or Workmen’s’ Comp rules and other provisions.

 

The Fraternal Order of Police is different. FOP44 has a full-time Labor Services Representative, Stephan Vandegrift.  "Steve," as everyone calls him is a retired ADC Lieutenant who has been providing Labor Services to Lodge 44 Members statewide for the last 20 years.

 

From simple questions to major grievances Steve and his team have your back.
