Durham School Bus Workers Secure New Three-Year Contract to Avoid Strike

Durham School Bus Workers Secure New Contract



In a significant move for labor relations in the education sector, over 150 bus drivers and monitors serving students in Maryland at Durham School Services have successfully ratified a new three-year collective bargaining agreement. This crucial development came as a substantial relief for the workers and the families they serve, as it effectively averted a potential strike.

The agreement, championed by Teamsters Local 570, outlines major gains in wages and benefits, providing much-needed support for those tasked with safely transporting students. The ratification underscores the workers’ solidarity and their belief in the bargaining committee’s efforts to secure a fair deal that recognizes the essential public service they provide.

Sean Cedenio, Secretary-Treasurer of Local 570, expressed pride in the workers’ determination throughout the negotiation process. He emphasized that the contract represents more than just increased pay; it signifies respect and recognition for the hard work these employees perform daily.
