A doorman strike would have impact more than 550,000 building residents, disrupting their package and mail deliveries.
NEW YORK CITY -- A tentative deal was reached Tuesday to avert a potential New York City doorman strike one day ahead of the deadline.
In the contract, 32BJ SEIU, representing 32,000 residential building workers, reaches agreement on the following issues:--A $3,000 bonus for essential workers--Protecting paid sick leave and paid vacation The economic security provided in the tentative contract will ensure that New York's doorpersons, superintendents, resident managers, handypersons, concierges and porters will be able to continue supporting 1.5 million residents of our city while also providing for themselves and their families.
More than 30,000 building workers and doormen at more than 3,000 luxury buildings authorized a strike last week, with the major points of contention covering paid vacation and sick time as well as proposals for workers to contribute toward their health insurance, currently paid for entirely by building and apartment owners.
