HOW IS PEF DEVELOPING CONTRACT PROPOSALS?
PEF has been actively collecting information for negotiations since last summer. Two surveys were distributed: one for PEF leaders and one for the general membership. In addition, 55 town meetings were held throughout the 12 PEF Regions. At these meetings, nearly 4000 PEF members shared their concerns with the Contract Team. Many members have also submitted written suggestions directly to the Team. Finally, we have also heard suggestions from PEF Staff, and we have drawn upon the resources of our two International Affiliates, SEIU and AFT, for support. All of this information will be used to develop the issues and priorities we will bring to the bargaining table.
