Cook County SEIU workers remain on strike after other unions conclude sellout agreements Chicago-area members of Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 73, comprising around 2,500 public sector workers in Cook County government and its public health system, are entering the second week of a strike for cost of living wage increases, no increases to health care insurance premiums, adequate staffing and pay increases for the hazards brought on by the worsening COVID-19 pandemic. An update posted on the SEIU Local 73 website reports that during a bargaining session Thursday night, county negotiators offered only half a percent more in pay compared to their last proposal. Union president Dian Palmer said this would amount to around ten cents more per hour in pay and falls short of raises offered to other county workers when “anniversaries” or “steps” are taken into account.
