Jefferson County Public Employees - Contract Vote Scheduled

After meeting for one more bargaining session on June 27, our Bargaining Team has finalized the details of a tentative agreement! Improvements to the collective bargaining agreement include:

  • Across the board wage increases all three years of the agreement

  • Elimination of lower wage scale steps

  • Addition of another wage step at the top of the scale in year three

  • Conversion from a vacation & sick leave accrual system to a Personal Time Off (PTO) system that allows for greater flexibility of use and a larger carry-over of hours year-to-year

  • Added steps for years of experience to longevity bonuses

This tentative agreement is recommended by our Bargaining Team.

Join your co-workers and vote “YES” to ratify your union contract!
