Will County committee approves one‑year economic terms for correctional officers contract
Summary
The executive committee approved a correctional officers collective‑bargaining agreement covering specified economic increases (multi‑year percentages) and removing longevity pay to reduce overtime; the motion passed by roll call.
The committee considered agenda item 25‑393687, the collective‑bargaining agreement with Will County correctional officers. County negotiators summarized economic increases built into the proposal (percent increases across fiscal years) and said the parties agreed to eliminate longevity pay as a cost savings measure intended to reduce overtime pressure. A roll‑call vote was held and the committee approved the contract.
Separately, the committee ratified an economic‑only, one‑year executive contract item to prevent back pay while non‑economic issues remain under negotiation. Members confirmed this ratification was limited to economic terms; the item also passed.
