(Santa Clara, CA) On August 12, 2024, the six-person Mission Trail Waste Systems Clerical unit located in Santa Clara, CA, unanimously ratified their successor collective bargaining agreement.
Lead negotiator and Business Representative Sergio Arranaga said, “When it comes to negotiations, having a unit that is willing to defend its importance in the workplace makes the direction very clear on where you need to be. With a motivated unit standing in solidarity, we were able to secure their worker protections and negotiate an outstanding economic and fringe benefit package that the unit accepted with an outstanding “yes” to ratify."
In addition to receiving the largest economic package the unit has ever seen, the Local Union secured Juneteenth as an additional holiday totaling thirteen, maintained full maintenance of benefits, and secured significant increases to their defined pension plan.
“I’m very proud of our unit and what we were able to accomplish in negotiations!" said the bargaining unit’s shop steward and bargaining committee member.
President Robert Sandoval said, “This is a testament to Local 350’s commitment to focus on the entire Solid Waste & Recycling Industry and the respective classifications within them. All classifications at any hauler deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, receiving the proper compensation they rightfully deserve. Congratulations to these members!"
