“Direct action gets the goods” say Progress Foundation members who win themselves a new agreement
SEIU 1021 members at Progress Foundation, a nonprofit in San Francisco providing community—based behavioral and mental health services, recently ratified a new agreement with management. The new agreement contains a number of victories for members including:
Nonprofit workers fight for safety and security
Workers at Larkin Street Youth Services successfully secured funding from the city to bring on 15 new workers who became members of our union. We are now working to extend funding for these jobs beyond the initial year, while also bargaining our next contract.
At Tenderloin Housing Clinic, we successfully pressured the employer to expand access to PPE to keep workers safe, as clients often come in without masks. We also won new thermometer equipment, meaning people entering the offices first have their temperature taken by a machine that gives a reading from a safe distance.
At Progress Foundation, a member went on a leave of absence because her spouse was high-risk for COVID-19 complications. After six months, the employer said they needed to return or have their ongoing absence considered as a resignation. We won a grievance to extend that members’ leave for an additional year.
