We have a tentative agreement for nonprofit workers at the Asian Art Museum!
After weekly negotiations since the beginning of April 2022, we finally reached a Tentative Agreement (TA) with the Asian Art Museum. We believe this is a strong agreement in light of current and future economic uncertainty. This TA will provide wage increases, job security, and protect our benefits for the next three years. We have also expanded our membership to include as-needed workers. This is a huge step towards building union power at the worksite and fighting for representation for all workers.
