CDCR member action delivers reclass and raise for Case Records Technicians
Nearly 1,000 workers from case records offices in the California
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation approved a
reclassification that recognizes the complexity of their work and
provides pay raises from 3.2 to 15.5 percent, and a streamlined
promotional process.
“We won because so many workers were willing to get active by
picketing, leafleting, signing petitions, writing letters, and calling
elected officials,” said Marc Bautista, Local 1000 vice president for
organizing and representation.

we are ready to act.”
