Friday August 3, 2018 Contract Negotiations Update
Last week, we continued our long and difficult negotiations process with the County regarding the successor MOU for our members.  Your Local 1014 Executive Board has made every effort to bargain in good faith with the County; however, in our meetings last week, they showed a reluctance to have a meaningful discussion on items that are essential to the health, safety and well-being of our members. 
Yesterday, in an effort to resolve the final items in our contract, members of the Executive Board met with the Los Angeles County Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and staff and were able to effectively communicate the importance of these items and their direct impact on our members. These items include the establishment of a Union-run Behavioral Health Employee Assistance Program in partnership with the Department. While we had a productive meeting with the CEO, your Executive Board is committed to ensuring our members continue to receive the pay, benefits and working conditions they need and deserve. 
As we move forward with this process, our intention is to continue to represent the best interest of our membership on the key points that are critically important, while still maintaining the highest level of service and efficiency for Los Angeles County communities. It is imperative at this time that solidarity throughout our membership remain strong.  “In unity there is strength.”  We will be aggressively engaging the CEO and Board of Supervisors over the next week to move our issues to conclusion.  We will not rest until we have a fair contract to put forward to the membership. We will keep you updated as new information is available.
