Union, university reach salary deal (UCSD)
By AMY IFURUNG
Staff Writer

The University of California and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Local 3299 reached a tentative agreement April 18 over wages for the more than 7,000 university service workers represented by the union.

The agreement, still subject to ratification by union members, includes a 10-percent wage increase for all service workers. The increase will be implemented over three years beginning Oct. 1, 2005, if the agreement is ratified. <snip>

Another element of the agreement entails a $9-per-hour minimum wage, an increase from the $8.32 wage currently paid to food service workers.

The compromise also includes 24 hours per year of paid education leave, a minimum of one free meal per shift for food-service workers and a $250 retroactive pay increase for the 2004-05 year. <snip>
