GRIEVANCE SETTLEMENT FOR 52 RAINIER SCHOOL MEMBERS

A grievance settlement is bringing more than $29,000 to 52 Rainier School employees who suffered a loss in pay over promotions.

They were not being promoted appropriately from attendant counselor trainee to the class of attendant counselor 1, said Senior Field Representative Amy Achilles.

The back pay turned up in Sept. 25 paychecks. In the Aug. 14 settlement, the 52 will receive back pay totaling $29,357.81. The individual amount varies based on when they became qualified for the AC 1 position. The amounts ranged from $10.30 to $2,868.26.

Local 491 Shop Steward Kellie Klimczak assisted in this victory.
