DOC team works to mitigate the impact of the pandemic.

Our Union Negotiations Committee met with the State on Wednesday, July 1, to continue to discuss impacts related to changes that are occurring due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

You may have seen in the news that the Governor has announced he is cancelling raises and issuing mandatory furloughs for some state employees.

We have received a lot of questions and concerns about how the pandemic might impact your previously negotiated general wage increase.

With so much turmoil facing our communities, we also wanted to highlight inspirational stories of members and their families within our Union.

Our Union Bargaining Committee headed into contract negotiations with the State this week over our 2021-2023 DOC collective bargaining agreement for Teamsters at the DOC.

As National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week comes to an end, I want to take a moment to thank you and highlight all of you that have chosen this profession.
