Sorry for the Portland-centric posts lately — send us good labor news from your neck of the woods at info at beatthebossrpg dot com! We’d love to share.

Staff employees for the Portland City Council have signed cards and filed the paperwork to unionize. Other employees at City Hall are already represented by more than a dozen unions, so this shouldn’t be a huge hurdle for these folks who work for local elected officials.

After years of bargaining, the New Seasons Labor Union in Portland, Oregon, has a contract. Workers will see higher wages and more humane scheduling, including at least 12 hours between shifts.

The contract covers 853 workers at 10 #pdx area stores. So go get some fancy holiday groceries and congratulate the workers!
