St. Louis Janitors, more than 3,000 members of SEIU Local 1, are currently in negotiations with the Contract Cleaners Association. They are fighting for living wages, health insurance and the opportunity for full time work.
Now is a very important time for the community to show support for those that empty our trash cans and sweep our floors each night. Negotitations have stalled and their contract will be extended to the end of January.
