It is my great pleasure to announce a major victory which your Union – the American Federation of Government Employees, Local 2463, has achieved on behalf of the Smithsonian Institution bargaining unit employees.

Years of hard work by your Union and its attorneys, Snider & Associates, has enabled AFGE Local 2463 to resolve its 2015 Overtime Grievance with the Smithsonian Institution and recover damages on behalf of the bargaining unit. For many years, management failed to both designate and pay many of our members correctly in accordance with the laws governing overtime compensation and, as a result, many of you were not properly compensated for overtime work.
