Oregon's Jackson County Library System employees get to have a voice at work. In a HUGE victory for working people Jackson County Library employees will be union. With SEIU Local #503 library workers have a voice at work, again. The right of association, that most important universal human right, has been declared the law in Southern Oregon. LSSI, the private corporation that stole our public library system has broken the law and now must make serious corrections.
Listen to the 2/15/08 edition of the Brain Labor Report radio show to learn more. This show has guest interviews with Buck Eichler who is the President of the SEIU represented Jackson County employees and with Pauline Black who is employed by LSSI as a Clerk at the Ashland, Oregon Library.
