East Haven Board of Education Cafeteria Workers Vote UPSEU
Cafeteria Workers in the Town of East Haven, Connecticut, voted to join UPSEU in a State election that was held on March 5th 2008.
After many years of representation by the Hotel and Restaurant Employees Union, UNITE, the members have overwhelming decided to join a union that can provide the kind of representation needed to protect their rights.
By a vote of 17 to 4, the members have taken a step in the right direction.
“Clearly the members were concerned about the lack of representation they were getting from HERE-UNITE and knew it was time for a change. They did their homework and contacted several other units that we represent here in Connecticut and were more than satisfied with what they heard. Word of mouth is the best advertisement you can get,” stated Director Ronald Suraci
The UPSEU family continues to grow! UPSEU welcomes the members of the East Haven Board of Education Cafeteria Unit.
