AFSCME members fought for and won major investments in state workers this year at the bargaining table and the legislative session.
These victories are made possible because of the years-long effort to win collective bargaining rights, our robust political mobilization, relentless advocacy, and all of us coming together as a union to fight for better pay, working conditions and improved state services.
With a unified voice on the job, we can improve our working conditions by addressing issues like safety, wages, and overtime without sacrificing the important services Nevadans need.
AFSCME members secured the largest wage increases during the 2023 legislative session due to our work at the bargaining table and advocacy at the legislature.
Your union is taking all necessary actions to hold the state accountable to the law, so that all state workers who have met the requirements of continuous service get the recognition and respect they have earned.
