The labor union representing more than 200 Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board employees voted to authorize a strike this week.
LIUNA Local 363 employees cast ballots with 94% in favor, the union said in a Facebook post.
Employees have for years called for improvements to wages, health care and safety precautions, AJ Lange, Business Manager of LIUNA Local 363 said in a statement.
“Despite our endless hard work, skill, and dedication that makes Minneapolis’ parks the best in the nation, management continues to treat us with contempt,” Lange said.
Any clue what the specifics look like here? The article is kind of sparse, other than listing high-level demands.
