2013-2015 Contract - Bargaining Update

July 11, 2012 UPDATE

The General Government Bargaining Team negotiated Tuesday, July 10th  and Wednesday, July 11th and sent a number of proposals and counterproposals to the management side of the table.
In the end, the parties reached tentative agreement on three more articles and an appendix. That means 32 of the 54 articles have been wrapped up – an amazing accomplishment at this early stage of negotiations.

The team also elected its three representatives to serve on the Health Care Coalition bargaining team: Gabe Hall, Local 862, Green Hill School; Craig Gibelyou, Local 793, Western State Hospital; and Jeff Paulsen, Local 443, Consolidated Technology Services.

The General Government Bargaining Team goes back to the table Aug. 14. The team wants members to stay tuned for any calls to action once the economic picture becomes clearer after the next two weeks.
