Upcoming Steward Training

Our local union is looking to hold a day long steward training on April 2. If you've ever been interested in checking out what it means to be a union steward, here is your chance! If you're interested send us an email at [email protected]. We will put off a time off request with your employer and cover your lost wages. The training takes place at the Duluth Labor Temple. If you go through the training, and decide this is for you, you get to be added to the official list of Local 9460 stewards!

ECUMEN: Local 9460 and Ecumen Lakeshore have reached a tentative agreement in our contract negotiations. The TA is for a 3 year contract containing a 13% raise (6% for year one, 4% for year two and 3% for year three). There is also an increase in preceptor pay from 50 cents an hour to $1/hr, and new language allowing workers to decline up to 3 mandates a year. We will be holding a vote on the Tentative Agreement on Thursday, Feb. 20. We'll be in the Gales room (which is next to the Chapel) from 6am to 3pm.
