Statement on the 15-day suspension of Eric Wisher, president of the Troy Uniformed Firefighters Association, Local 86

“The Troy Area Labor Council stands in solidarity with Troy Firefighter and Uniformed Firefighters Association Local 86 President Eric Wisher and any city worker who demands to be treated with dignity and respect on the job. Troy firefighters already work in extremely adverse and risky circumstances and answer the call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No worker should be unnecessarily and unreasonably compelled to complete any assignment that risks their health and safety."
