The de Blasio administration settles two more labor deals

JENNIFER FERMINO

The de Blasio administration on Friday announced it had settled labor pacts with two more city unions following the same pattern as the ratified UFT contract, which includes modest pay raises.

Including these new contracts, the city has now settled with over 60% of its workforce. When Mayor de Blasio took office in January, every single labor union was operating on expired pacts.

The new deals cover the SEIU Local 300, which includes fingerprint technicians, forensic mortuary technicians, and other titles, and the United Probation Officers Association.
