Santa Clara County: Union leaders call for re-vote to ratify contract

Source: Mercury News

Union leaders announced Sunday that members of a bargaining unit, which failed to ratify its own agreement with Santa Clara County, will re-vote on that agreement later this month, according to the Service Employees International Union Local 521.

The Social Services Unit voted Saturday against ratifying its agreement with the county and that stopped the union's overall agreement from becoming final.

Union leaders said they struck the overall tentative agreement June 30, which avoided a strike.

Evidence of misrepresentation to the unit's membership about the overall agreement prompted the call for the re-vote, union leaders said.
