N.J. public employee union ratifies new contract
The Christie administration announced Monday a new four-year contract it has reached with the state’s second-largest public employee union.
The agreement — ratified by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 1 in September – provides for no salary increases for the first two years.
The union’s nearly 9,000 members will receive a 1 percent salary increase in the contract’s third year and 1.75 percent in its fourth year.
Those raises are identical to ones agreed to by the other civilian bargaining units the state has already reached agreements with, including the Communications Workers of America, which represents 35,000 state workers. (Campisi, The Record)
