News Tip...or not-
While our City's CRACK negotiators handed out tidy raises for Unions, look at the TU story on NYS contracts-
Cuomo’s administration has settled its contract with Council 82, subset of state law enforcement officers, and has been without a contract since 2005. It gives a sense of what the negotiators want to see as part of a final agreement with the larger public workers unions, such as:
•Wage freezes through the 2013-2014 fiscal year
•Elimination of “step increases”
•“More equitable employee health care contributions”
•“Major reforms to health care benefits and overtime”
