Lourdes Counseling Center - United We Win, Divided We Beg

Our Bargaining Team met with the Employer on Friday, June 11, for a long session. This is the first time in bargaining that the Employer has appeared to want to continue bargaining outside of "banker's hours" to get a contract.

We received an improved wage scale counter by the Employer that would give current employees slightly better placement than what the Employer had proposed prior. Before we can accept a wage scale, we need more information that takes into consideration annual increased steps, COLA, etc. We expect the Employer to present this at the time of our next bargaining session on June 25.
