UC to OK service workers' contract
The Cincinnati Enquirer
University of Cincinnati trustees are expected today to approve a contract with 850 service workers, who filed federal discrimination complaints, held a one-day strike and sought a state-appointed, neutral fact-finder to resolve their fight to get pay raises and other demands.
The four-year contract calls for 1.5 percent yearly, across-the-board raises.
Debbie Schneider, the regional director of the Service Em ployees International Union (SEIU) District 925, couldn't be reached Tuesday.
Union members held a walkout Sept. 23, the first day of fall classes. They also filed federal gender- and race-bias complaints against UC, threatening more than $100 million in federal grants UC holds.
Last August and September, about 140 SEIU members filed wage discrimination complaints against UC with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
