School Strikes

An old adage states “experience is a great teacher.” Huffmaster has provided labor strike solutions to more than 100 Ohio school systems during the last decade. These administrators prefer to use Huffmaster because we offer professional security officers with qualified replacement workers for a cost-effective, one-stop strike solution.

The Huffmaster strike solution includes recruiting the teachers, administrative staff, food service staff and janitorial workers you need to keep your school open during contract negotiations with their respective unions.

When your union(s) decides to strike, you need a comprehensive contingency plan, trained strike security officers and qualified temporary staffing resources. Huffmaster has a proven track record of keeping Ohio schools, administrators, teachers and students safe and secure during contract negotiations.

1. Contingency Planning: Huffmaster coordinates a complete and customized contingency plan to prepare your school for a union strike. The plan includes communicating with local law enforcement, securing housing and transportation for replacement teachers/janitors/food service/administrative staff, recruiting and screening replacements, and any other needs to continue operations.
    
2. Strike Security Officers: Huffmaster’s trained strike security professionals can rapidly respond to secure your facilities and deter strike-related violence. Our security officers will implement various procedures – such as video documentation and restraining orders – to protect you, your school, your administrators, your service staff and your students during the strike. Each Huffmaster security officer is screened in accordance with Ohio law Section 3319 of the Ohio State Revised Code. They also receive thorough strike-related training and certification to maintain a safe environment with a very professional appearance.
    
3. Staffing Resources: Huffmaster’s Alternative Workforce division provides complete staffing services encompassing planning, transportation, training, supervision and administration of replacement teachers, administrative staff, food service workers and janitorial. We also can supply qualified local replacement teachers – to one school or multiple school sites – without the high travel, housing and per diem costs associated with out-of-town replacement workers.

Huffmaster provides Ohio school districts with a solid bargaining option during hostile labor negotiations by protecting your facility with our professional security officers and continuing operations with our qualified replacement teachers, administrative staff, food service workers and janitorial.
