AFSCME Local 3331 - Teaching Assistants and Paraprofessionals

 

We are proceeding with Negotiations for the Contract.  We have had 4 sessions to date, and have had some fruitful conversation & are hopeful to have something to bring back to the members for a vote in a couple of months. 

 

One of the issues the District has brought to the table is the Wellness Initiatives that are currently happening at the District, and the possibility of a Wellness Incentive.  The Wellness Incentive is a monetary Incentive (other groups have negotiated up to $250 as part of their contract negotiations!) for completing the Wellness Assessment & trying one wellness plan to improve overall health. 

 

Right now, the Wellness Assessment is available for completion.  While we are still negotiating the Incentive (the money of course), we encourage those who may be interested in participating to get started now, rather than wait until we have all negotiations finished.  While we cannot tell you exactly what the $$ will end up being for our group (it is part of the total package for negotiations) we do not want our members who may be interested to miss out on this opportunity.

 

We hope to have some more information soon.  Stay Safe and have a wonderful holiday season!
