A MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT LIGHT
Congratulations on our ratified contract! This contract provides us with significant wage increases for the next four years, the largest of which our Local has seen. This historical contract gives our members security and benefits protecting our jobs at PSU. I want to personally thank the members for standing together and fighting for this contract. The solidarity, unity, and power used by our members was the driving force of our negotiations. This is what happens when we stand together; one powerful voice that can make a difference. You all sent a very clear message to PSU, you wanted a fair contract that reflects and recognizes the work we do for this University. I want to also thank the negotiation team for all the hard work they did and the dedication they had during this whole process. Their steadfast work ethic never wavered, and they all fought very hard to represent their members. I have never been more proud to be a Teamster. Collectively, we got this done!Teamsters Local Union No. 8 represents 2,700 working men and women employed at the Penn State University, including over 20 commonwealth campuses throughout Pennsylvania.
We are Technical Service employees who work in custodial service, emergency medical response, food service, housing service, trades, science, athletics, agriculture, research, printing, engineering, transportation, airport services, ITS and media.
We provide 24 hour essential services for Penn State University to operate daily.
NON MEMBER FEESDue to a recent court case in Pennsylvania, Local 8 will be charging non-members a fee for the grievance procedure. Non-members still have a choice to join our Union and we will encourage them to do so. There is always strength in numbers! If they choose not to join, they will not get our grievance procedure/ services for free. The fee must be paid up front for non-members to utilize the Union to process the grievance.
