Support Amherst DPW Workers!
We're asking the Amherst Town Manager to Come Back to the Table & Negotiate a Fair Contract with DPW Workers
ADPWU workers have been working with an expired contract for over seven months, with over a year of ongoing negotiations without a fair contract.
The issues facing the DPW include low wages, with many being below a livable wage. Other problems include: high rates of turnover, low retention rates, and frequent understaffing. Negotiating a fair contract will be beneficial for the town and its residents, resulting in improved retention and service delivery.
Labor family: its time to show up for Amherst DPW workers! They keep our streets safe and our communities running - they deserve fair pay and a good contract! Come tell the Town of Amherst to do the right thing.
