Do State Employees Have the Right to Strike? – In Some Cases, Yes!
Learn More at Strike School

Article Published on March 24, 2023

Our contract expires at the end of June, and we’re literally weeks away from bargaining with the State. Our team will be working hard to fulfill the priorities of the members, and we’ll all need to support our negotiation efforts with actions in the workplace … and perhaps more.

Can Local 1000 strike? In certain circumstances, yes. Despite a “no-strike” clause in our contract, we have the right to strike, under the right conditions.

Confused? Join us for Strike School!

As a Local 1000 worker, you have important rights that allow you to go on strike, but there’s a lot more to know. That’s why we’re holding a series of Strike Schools on March 29, April 5, and April 12, 2023, from 6:00 – 7:30 p.m. Ready to learn more? Enroll today!
