2023-2025 Contract Bargaining Updates
Your TESC Police Unit contract has been ratified! The highlights of what we bargained include:
- Base Wage Increases:
07-01-2022 3.25% - Agreed to in MOU
07-01-2023 4.5%
07-01-2024 4.5%
- Law Enforcement employees assigned as FTO/PTO, will be paid at a rate two steps above their base rate of pay for the duration of their FTO/PTO assignment. This appears to be a slight reduction, but we agreed to secure the 9% across the board increase for everyone.
- Certified instructors assigned to provide training, other than an FTO assignment, will receive an additional five percent (5%) of their base rate of pay for the hours spent providing training.
- Law enforcement employees assigned as the Evidence Officer will be paid at a rate two steps above their base rate of pay for the duration of their Evidence Officer assignment.
- Time spent by employees whose off-duty hours are interrupted by work-related calls requiring more than a de minimus response will be considered hours worked, with a minimum of one-half (1/2) hour compensation for each separate situation. Employees are expected to avoid calls to off-duty personnel that are not authorized by a supervisor or required by a time-sensitive work matter.
- Legislative change requiring retention of corrective/disciplinary documents for life of employment. Achieved language providing protections in relation to progressive discipline while complying with the change in statute.
