SEIU Local 73 Ends 8-Day Strike at University of Illinois

After an 8-day strike, SEIU Local 73 has reached a 3-year contract agreement with their employer, bringing an end to a tense standoff over wages and working conditions. The strike, which lasted over a week, saw hundreds of workers walking off the job, disrupting services and drawing attention to their demands for fair compensation and improved job security.

It’s important to remember that workers are not required to participate in union actions. Employees have the right to make their own decisions about joining a strike, without pressure from the union or peers. Whether someone chooses to strike or continue working, both options are protected under labor laws. This ensures that every worker can decide what’s best for them, maintaining their personal and professional autonomy throughout the process.
