Your Bargaining Team has been working hard to negotiate a fair San Diego County Contract and wants to share the following updates:
- Teleworking: We have had productive discussions about creating a fair and transparent County-wide teleworking policy that supports employees and clients.
- Organizational Equity and Inclusion: We are in discussions with the County to build mechanisms to identify and address issues of institutional racism in the County.
- Contract Clean-Up: This sub-committee has met with the County three times, and members are working to ensure readable and clear contract language.
- Economics: Our Bargaining Team has been listening to your feedback and goals and will be submitting an economic proposal that includes across-the-board wage increases, equity adjustments, premiums, health care flex increases and addressing Tier D.
