Success! We have a contract!

Success! We have a contract!

Well, almost… we have to finish dotting all the i’s and crossing all the t’s. And then considering the time of the year we have to check it twice to make sure who’s naughty and nice.

The very highest of the highlights:

4% increase for General Funded Employees, 2.5% increase for Enterprise Funded Employees in this fiscal year.

Flexible Spending Account (Health Spending Account? Still unclear what it is ‘officially’ called) to help offset healthcare costs.

Pension contribution reduced to 8% in 2015. This is basically a 1% increase in pay.

There is more! Lots and lots more…..

The schedule is to complete the actual language of the contract this week, post notices and meetings for the members to review the contract the following week,  a ratification vote sometime the week after that….

Basically stay tuned to this site and your Union Bulletin Board for more details.
