Strike authorization vote looms for union representing San Francisco school staff

Two unions with members who work for the San Francisco Unified School District will soon be voting whether to walk off the job in the coming weeks over stalled contract negotiations.

Christian Benitez has been working within the SFUSD for ten years and currently serves as the custodial supervisor, overseeing 14 sites.

Christian is a part of the Service Employees International Union Local 1021. This union represents classified staff including custodians, cafeteria workers, clerks and others."Staffing is another big issue that we're having as well. A lot of people don't want to work for San Francisco Unified School District, like people within our department, especially with the classified," explained Benitez.

"The district is working diligently and in good faith to reach an agreement with our labor partners. We have met on a regular basis with them, and have multiple dates on the calendar to continue our discussions. Typically, bargaining for a Collective Bargaining Agreement of this size and at regular pacing takes a year or more.
