Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The Clerk of Toledo Municipal Court and UAW Local 12 reached a tentative agreement over terms that revise the current collective bargaining agreement, which expired on December 31, 2022, for a successor agreement, for the new term of January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025. The Union ratified that tentative agreement on December 29, 2022. Pursuant to Ohio Revised Code section 4117.10(B), the economic provisions of that agreement are now being submitted to City Council for consideration and passage. If not acted upon by Council within 30 days, the agreement is deemed approved.
In accordance with the statutory bargaining process under the Ohio Revised Code, the Clerk of Court and the Union met on December 19, 2022 to negotiate the terms of a successor agreement. An agreement was reached on that date.
Regarding the economic terms, the agreement grants an employee the ability to use an additional day of accumulated sick time for bereavement leave upon the death of an immediate family member. In addition, the agreement adds Juneteenth as a paid holiday. Regarding wages, employees will be given a 4% base pay increase in January 2023, a 4% increase in January 2024, and a 4% increase in January 2025. Finally, regarding health care, the parties agree to continue to negotiate health care together with the other affected bargaining units as part of a multi-unit bargaining.
