PS&T CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS UPDATE No. 27
TABLE TALK
Negotiations at both the large table and the Schools’ bargaining table continued this week. Progress was made although there were no sign-offs.

It is now clear where the parties will end up on many issues. A handful of particularly complex issues remain to be worked through, though.  Optimists look to the fact that a hallmark of this negotiations has been respectful treatment of our team and our members’ issues by the Governor’s bargainers and that this is evidence the complexities faced at this stage can and will be timely overcome. Stay tuned.    

UPCOMING MEETINGS

We are scheduled to meet this coming week.
