Pennsylvania Act 195 ignites bold public employee union
Act 195 reshapes Pennsylvania public labor by enabling a new contract for 21 000 state workers. The agreement signed in Harrisburg by Governor Shapp and AFSCME district rep McEntee expands nationwide bargaining, with five percent retroactive pay, another five percent in November, and broad fringe benefits including hospitalization, overtime pay, holiday pay, and 200 days sick leave.
