Tentative Agreement Reached!
Early in the morning on August 29, after nearly 19 hours of mediation, all 6 Hennepin County AFSCME locals reached a tentative agreement for our contract with Hennepin County. As members you will vote on whether or not to accept it. Voting ratification dates, locations, and times and summaries for the Master AFSCME Tentative Agreement and 2822 supplementals are below. As part of the terms of the agreement, all 6 Hennepin County AFSCME Locals, including 2822, recommend ratification. It's not what we need or deserve but we feel it was the best we could get and more than the County wanted give.
Thank you to everyone who wore green on Tuesdays, talked union to your co-workers, called your commissioner, attended a Commissioner meeting or picket. As a result of our actions we got a better deal then they wanted to offer us.
Management wanted a new merit pay structure. We fought that back.
Management wanted to take away the option of sick and vacation for new hires and control how our unions do our work, and we fought that back too.
The contact on-site voting schedule is below, with the summaries for the Master AFSCME Tentative Agreement and 2822 supplementals available as attachments at the bottom of the page.
