UPSEU’s New Jersey Division secured another victory over an AFL-CIO union on October 3, 2013. The Operating Engineers had represented the group for many years. 83% of the unit members voting voted for UPSEU.

UPSEU’s Jim Gangale and Mark McCart who both worked on the campaign commended the unit for knowing what they wanted and standing together to fight for it. UPSEU will now go to work preparing for negotiations and establishing its representation model for the unit.

We welcome the Rivervale BOE employees to UPSEU!
