Payroll Chaos Kills at SFUSD: UESF SEIU 1021 Workers Fed Up with "Empower" Program
Thousands of SFUSD UESF and SEIU 1021 have faced chaos in pay ing their wages, healthcare benefits and pensions. Some workers have died from lack of healthcare benefits from this malfeasance by SFSU management and inaction by the School Board. Some teachers are calling for an unfair labor practice strike.
Thousand of SFUSD teachers, SEIU 1021 service workers have faced chaos in getting proper pay and funding for their healthcare and other benefits. Some workers have died as a result of this malfeasance according to SEIU 1021 SFUSD chapter president Rafael Picazo.. Although it is illegal not to pay people properly, there has been no prosecution of the management of SFUSD by the City District Attorney Jenkins, State Attorney General Rob Bonta and action by State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond to force the District to pay teachers properly.
Members of both unions rallied and spoke out about why teachers and staff are quitting and having their lives wrecked by the "empower" program. Some raised the issue of corruption since the same company has been given millions of dollars despite it's record. Teachers also warned about the plan to close more public schools and increase charters and privatization in the district.
Some teachers also demanded that there be an unfair labor practice strike by UESF for the flagrant violations of their labor rights. This took place after the union organized a sleep inn previously to get paid one time.
This action took place on 10/25/22
