Las Virgenes Members Win a Contract That Includes a 3% Raise

We did it! Our SEIU 721 Las Virgenes Municipal Water District bargaining team worked hard to secure a strong one year contract that puts members and the District back on track. Our unity and collective participation were key in bringing home this contract. Congratulations!

Here’s what we achieved:

  • 3% salary increase over the term of the contract is a solid win and will help families keep up with cost of living increases.
  • $20 per pay period employer match on 401(A)
  • Term: One year

The 3% salary increase will be effective Dec. 30th, 2017.

Las Virgenes members voted by 98% to approve the Tentative Agreement.

These wage increases will help to ensure that the District is adequately investing in frontline workers and quality services by retaining dedicated and skilled workers. (Above, SEIU 721 Las Virgenes Bargaining Team, left to right: Mike Hand, Laura Rockwell, Howard Marsden, John Gil.)

When we fight, we win!
