Metro-area janitors voted to approve a new four-year contract that will provide pay increases and expanded health care benefits.
Members of the Service Employees International Union, Local 105, reached the deal 10 days before the current contract’s June 28 expiration. Janitors have gone on strike recently in some California cities before securing new labor contracts.
Terms of the contract, which covers janitors at office buildings throughout metro Denver, include across-the-board salary increases of 4 percent and the expansion of health benefits for families at no cost to workers.
