NAPE/AFSCME support staff union members at Chadron, Peru, and Wayne State Colleges have ratified our tentative contract agreement for the July 1, 2025-June 30, 2027 biennium. 96% of union members voted in favor of the agreement, with voter turnout at 50%. Thank you to everyone who voted.
The tentative agreement maintains our salary schedule with 5% steps every three years, includes 5.25% increases to the salary schedule over the biennium, allows for 40 hours of comp time payout, and maintains our retirement incentive programs.
A copy of the details presented at the ratification meeting is available here. The final agreement will be published on our website here. It will take effect July 1, 2025.
We will now turn our attention to organizing and growing our union to give our members an even stronger voice on the job. Our membership is at a record high, and our contract gains over the last three years are reflective of that growth. If you’re not a union member, will you join us today?
