A memorandum of agreement is being finalized and plans are underway to hold a ratification vote for Local 18 members, possibly as soon as late next week.

“The bargaining committee negotiated a real increase to help offset the continuing cost-of-living increases that we see year over year,” said GSU staff rep and bargaining spokesperson Brian Lark. “There is also an addition of annual pay-for-performance increases that members are now eligible to earn year over year to recognize the efforts and successes that employees bring to the table.”

Additional information on the tentative settlement will be available after it has been voted on by Local 18 members.

Congratulations to GSU’s bargaining committee members Christina Jones and GSU staff representative Brian Lark on reaching a tentative settlement.
