For the second time in less than a week, CSEA/SEIU walked away from an upcoming election against UPSEU, as a result of having no support from the membership.
CSEA/SEIU notified the State of Connecticut Board of Labor Relations that they wished to remove their name from the Hebron BOE Non-Certified employee ballot and as a result the Hebron Board of Education voluntarily recognized UPSEU as the unit's exclusive bargaining representative.
The 51 member Hebron BOE Non-Certified Employees unit was set to vote for UPSEU in the coming days. However, this formality is not now necessary and the members will immediately receive the representation that they deserve and have sought for many years. UPSEU looks forward to working with the unit in preparing for upcoming negotiations and ensuring that they finally have a strong voice at the bargaining table.
We welcome the Hebron BOE Non-Certified Employees to the UPSEU family!
