After months of negotiating in the midst of a global pandemic, we are thrilled to announce that we’ve reached a tentative agreement (TA) with management at the City of Berkeley.

CSU, Maintenance, and Clerical worked jointly over recent months to accomplish this victory, and the Chapter Presidents and bargaining team members are unanimously recommending a YES vote on this TA.

“We are proud of the entire SEIU 1021 team for their work at the bargaining table and of every member of our union working for the City of Berkeley. COVID-19 has introduced new challenges to the negotiation process, but by standing strong in our union, we’ve been able to secure an agreement that will protect the health, safety, and financial wellbeing of all of our members during these difficult times.”
