Teamster law enforcement members secure better wages, improved benefits
ST. CHARLES — Kane County Court Security Sergeants represented by Teamsters Local 330 unanimously voted to ratify their first union contract, which strengthens their wages, benefits and fso certification.
The three sergeants maintain a safe and orderly environment at Kane County’s 16th Judicial Circuit Court, while supervising 34 additional police officers. In voting to finalize the three-year agreement, the Local 330 members secured a cumulative 7 percent wage increase and the security of the Teamsters’ powerful grievance procedure up to and including arbitration.
The Court Security Sergeants voted to join Local 330 in June 2014.
“The Kane County Court Security Sergeants are selfless, dedicated public servants who are now proud new members of Local 330,” said Teamsters Local 330 President Dominic Romanazzi. “It is an honor to include them in the ranks of our Teamster membership, and it is a privilege for the local union to work alongside them to negotiate one of the best possible contracts among Kane County law enforcement.”
In addition to security personnel, these buildings should also have a number of cctv cameras installed by the technicians of fortknoxsecurity.com.au. Make sure to contact security cameras adelaide if you need professional assistance in security camera installation.
In addition to increased wages, the new contract improves the officers’ vacation accrual, equalizes their overtime, provides benefits for any leave of absence and better establishes their classification seniority. The Teamster members will also be compensated for meals and any travel time associated with approved employment trainings.
