Our CX Bargaining Team successfully negotiated an increase in shift differential rates for UC Teamsters, raising it to $1.25 per hour for medical center workers and $1 per hour for campus workers. The effective date for these increased rates was supposed to be October 21, 2022, the day our new contract came into effect. However, the UC is now taking the position that the effective dates should be November 27 for biweekly-pay workers and December 1 for monthly-pay workers. This would deny our members more than a month of shift differential pay at our increased rate! The UC claims that this delay is necessary to process the increased rate in their payroll system and that they "forgot to bargain the effective date and made a mistake." We say that's not our problem. Our contract, that the UC signed, does not include a separate effective date for increased shift differential pay and so they must pay it retroactive to the date of our new contract, October 21! UC is shortchanging hard working Teamsters, including many who continue to provide critical and essential care in COVID and flu season. We are owed a $0.53 cent increase over for the past five weeks for medical center workers and $0.28 cent increase for campus workers! Let your voice be heard and send a message to UC to stop shortchanging CX Teamsters. Pay our shift differential rates as agreed, retroactive to October 21! https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/uc-stop-shortchanging-essential-workers
