"Just days before their contract was to expire, a union representing 500 janitors at the University of Miami reached a new deal with a contractor that averts a strike and calls for pay raises of 24% over four years. The tentative agreement on Friday, which requires member ratification, covers janitors, groundskeepers, and other property service workers who clean and maintain UM classrooms, clinics, dormitories, locker rooms, and research facilities."
""ABM is pleased to have reached a tentative four-year agreement with SEIU Local 32BJ covering custodians at the University of Miami," said Michael Valentino, senior director, external communications and media relations. "Our team plays an important role in maintaining a clean, safe, and healthy learning environment for students, faculty, staff, and visitors, and this agreement reflects the mutual best interests of all parties involved," he added. "The agreement is subject to final approval by the union membership.""
"The union said the agreement "delivers the highest 1st-year wage increase with ABM, thousands in bonuses, access to the 32BJ Legal Fund, and a limited number of subsidized parking spots, while protecting first in class benefits, including 100% employer paid healthcare.""
