Bargaining Update #3
Feb. 26, 2026
Your bargaining team met with San
Joaquin County today and made the following
proposals (see attachment on this page). There was also a
presentation made to both the team and the County regarding the
Educational (ED) Fund. The ED Fund would benefit
every member should they choose to use it, but only if the County
starts contributing to the fund. Your team will be
making a proposal at the next bargaining meeting with the County
in March.
The dialogue with the County continues to be positive in the
opinion of your bargaining team. However, the County
has stated that they have not costed out all of the proposals
yet, so we will see if that changes or not.
Again, we want to stress that even though we have made proposals,
it takes the County to agree for them to become a
reality. Please watch out for worksite meetings to speak
with your bargaining team member or field staff and get
additional updates/questions answered.
