Lather, rinse, repeat... This is what the COVID-19 cycle has become. The actions of District management have created disruption regarding wages, hours, and working conditions.

To what degree has the COVID-19 pandemic impacted “essential” labor, workers and communities in Southern California?

It’s Groundhog Day
As the Fall semester begins, we’re back in negotiations and, once again phone banking and spreading the word in a call-to-action to our family, friends, neighbors, and colleagues to VOTE NO on the RECALL.

Equity Health (or as you know them –WageWorks) is out and ASI Flex is in.
In our last contract negotiations, we were able to obtain a new benefit — reimbursement of retiree Medicare Part B premiums. WageWorks was tasked with setting up the process for this new benefit. They were unable to complete this task before they were replaced.
