Tech workers are asking for a contract that addresses racial disparities in pay, includes “just cause” job protections (meaning employees can’t be fired without reason or a fair process), and allows for remote/hybrid work.
Why is it taking 2+ years to negotiate that? Hopefully the strike moves things along.
Because if there’s no hard deadline for negotiations, the old contract that favours the employers more is still in force. There’s no incentive for employers to ratify a new contract except for the credible threat of a strike.
