Report side letter infractions
How you can help to reduce job outsourcing
The new Outsourcing Task Force -- created by the June side letter -- is beginning to focus on wasteful private vendor contracts that can be eliminated, so that the cost savings can save taxpayer money and help preserve member pay and state jobs. Working with members on the Outsourcing Task Force Local 1000's Contract, Research and Legal departments are reviewing and challenging those contracts that needlessly cost the state money.
If you are aware of a situation where private contractors are performing work that could be done by Local 1000-represented state, please take a few minutes and fill out the survey form here >>

The Local 1000 member-elected bargaining team fought for this clause while negotiating the side letter agreement in June, which protects job security and returns bargaining unit specific work to our members. Along with the elimination and reduction of these positions, provisions are in place so that none will be hired until July 1, 2013, unless they fall within certain guidelines.
