IP Contract Highlights (2009-2011)

We stopped cuts to wages and benefits, and we did better than other unions. We focused on setting up programs that will pay off when the economy recovers - Dawn Forks, IP Bargaining Team (Tacoma)

Health Care

We won more funding that covers the increasing cost of health care. This is a great win – it protects our health benefits and keeps them affordable for the first year of the contract.

Training Fund
Fully funded under the proposed contract. This is a win for the future, as training will professionalize the home care workforce. When the economy improves, a professionalized workforce can demand more money and better benefits.

Retirement
This is another big victory for the future. Under the contract, the state must work with our union over the next two years to begin the work of developing a retirement system.
