McClure Admin Agrees to 11% in COLAs Over Three Years For 379 Workers Represented by AFSCME

According to a NorCo news release, county administrators have hammered out a deal with a bargaining unit (AFSCME Council 13 Local 1265) representing 379 county workers in Residual, Court Appointed, Court Related, and Youth Care. Under a proposed three-year contract, which has yet to be presented to County Council, these workers will receive an 11% increase in the form of COLAs over the next three years. Moreover, there will be no changes to healthcare coverage.

NorCo employs about 2,200 workers (full and part-time), and roughly two-thirds belong to a union. The nonunion workers are called career service.

WOW $.30. That’s about $16 a week. Stop using percentages that look so terrific. List the $ amounts of these raises so everyone can see what a joke it is to work for this county.

I beg to differ. A cola raise at this percentage is high. You should be grateful

Bernie does career service get anything?
