Local 17 state employees ratified their 2011-2013 contract in balloting that concluded in March. The contract terms were recently adopted by the Washington State Legislature.

The contract covers roughly 2500 Local 17 employees working at the Departments of Licensing, Transportation, and the State Patrol.

The two-year agreement becomes effective July 1, 2011.

The distribution of contracts to members will be delayed as the contract could not be printed until the Legislature ended its session.

Distribution of contracts will be conducted by the employing agency, but members may choose to reduce printing costs by opting to only access the agreement online. Your agency will be setting this program up shortly. For now, members may view an electronic version.
