With 91 percent approval, SEIU Local 1000 has ratified a new contract that reduces the furlough days to one per month for the union's 95,000 members. The contract now goes to the Legislature for approval and then to the governor's desk. Besides the reduced furlough, SEIU members will get two floating holidays to replace the two holidays Schwarzenegger cut and pay health insurance premiums at about the 2008 level. The contract does not cover other bargaining units or excluded employees; however, the vote result does provide a ray of sunshine for supervisors: ACSS has been working with DPA to make sure excluded employees get at least the same deal.
