RECENT BARGAINING VICTORIES

Local 1037 - CWA Local 1037 members at Bergen’s Promise voted on Monday to ratify a new union contract. The new contract includes salary increases based on years of service, and more!

Local 1180 - The City of New York has reached an agreement with CWA Local 1180 regarding fair pay for its 911 operators, who were being forced to work 40 hours a week while only being paid for 35 hours. According to CWA Local 1180 President and Northeast Region At-Large Executive Board Member Gloria Middleton, “This new deal provides the higher compensation they deserve and allows them the opportunity to work a compressed week that could better suit their families.”

Better pay and more schedule flexibility are expected to improve employee retention and the efficiency of emergency services.
