Three committees have been discussion the Correctional Officers contract which is to be voted upon next Tuesday night, but, strangely, my Freedom of Information request for it was denied today.

Imagine my surprise when I found the contract posted among the papers in the County Board packet for Tuesday.

The full McHenry County Correctional Officers Unit II Negotiated Contract can be found here.  If there are any labor relations folks among readers, please share your analysis or comments.

The salary schedule shown in the proposed Corrections Officers Unit II Contract.

As you can see these county jobs pay pretty well.

And they will be increased 2-3% per year over the three-year period.

Vacations aren’t bad either.  A full month in the 11th year.

Here's the proposed vacation schedule.

I note that Unit II has shown up once before on McHenry County Blog.  Look here, if you are curious.  Lots and lots of comments under that article.
