San Diego Workers Get Raises With a Catch
Description
San Diego’s city council just approved new union deals that give workers raises—yes, even amid budget cuts to libraries and parks—but come with a steep trade-off: mandatory unpaid leave. Raises kick in over the next few years, but workers must clock 40 unpaid hours each in two fiscal years. Union leaders say this is overdue compensation after years of wage stagnation, and that San Diego employees lag behind peers in nearby cities. Meanwhile, police, firefighters, and lifeguards are still negotiating—contracts expire this month.
