Wage Increases for Local 1181 Members

A grievance was filed against the City of New York for violating the 2017-2021 memorandum of agreement (MOA). On January 6, 2021 every Local 1181 member was to receive a general wage increase of 1.63%. 

I am happy to report that we have settled this grievance with the City of New York and all Members will receive the 1.63% raise retroactively from January 6, 2021. The City has confirmed that it will be in your July 9, 2021 pay check. 

In unity,
Rebecca Greene
President local 1181
