County Beach and Harbor stewards filed a grievance on behalf of all relevant drivers asking for a 3% bonus for MTD, RTD, PEO and UTO positions. The County says when you are hired, the department requires drivers to hold an A/B license.
As a result of reviewing the four classifications, the Department will reclassify the Medium Truck Driver and Refuse Truck Driver to Heavy Truck Driver. If the CEO’s office approves this reclass, existing MTDs and RTDs will receive a salary increase.
“We’re not giving up this fight. Now we have the third level response from the department so our next step is to take this grievance to arbitration.”
