~ SUPPORT LOCAL ONE PROTECTION SERVICES
NYU has yet to finish negotiations for new contract with Local 1 , the independent campus
security officer’s union.
Don't let NYU try to cut
costs by replacing a hard-working union with poorly trained minimum-wage
contract guards.
Sub-contract security guards are paid half as much as Local 1 guards,
don’t have CPR & fire training, and don’t receive pension or
tuition remission for themselves or their families.
Right now, its 250 members
are working without contract as a measure of good faith. The university
has responded by making percentage changes to pension plans, including
a clause which lets the university increase the number of with sub-contracted
temporary positions to rise with the in 6.5% increase in the annual
pay overall.

become associated with. However, working conditions, salaries and
benefits are abysmal.
