Treasury Department Releases First-Of-Its-Kind Report on Benefits of Unions to the U.S. Economy
8.28.23 - The Treasury Department just released its most comprehensive-ever look at the role labor unions play in the American economy with a new report by the Department’s Office of Economic Policy. The report represents one of the more than 70 actions implemented by the White House Task Force on Worker Organizing and Empowerment, chaired by Vice President Harris. The report finds that unions play an important role in addressing longstanding challenges faced by the middle class – including stagnant wages, high housing costs, and reduced intergenerational mobility. In doing so, unions contribute to a more robust and resilient economy.

WORK FLEXIBILITY COMMITTEE
SEIU Local 300 and the City agree to a remote work pilot consistent with the terms of the District Council 37 Remote Work Pilot dated May 31, 2023. The parties (Local 300 and The City) further agree to continue to discuss work flexibility measures to enhance the recruitment and retention of City employees and employee morale, including but not limited to compressed schedules and flexible scheduling.
On 2.23.27, our Annuity will increase $317 annually and a recurring $100 per employee (active and retiree) increase to the welfare fund. Finally, all employees of Mayoral Agencies, elected officials, the Department of Education, and the New York City Housing Authority who receive paychecks via direct deposit shall be opted out of receiving paper pay stubs. Employees may choose to opt in via NYCAPS or other appropriate method.
