According to CWA International Representative Elaine Harris, it’s not just the uniformed officers whose pay is dangerously low. Many support staff in the state’s correctional facilities also earn paychecks that qualify them for public assistance. Low pay translates into high turnover, training new hires, overtime and safety issues. CWA Local 2055 represents many of the workers in the Division of Corrections, Regional Jails and the Division of Juvenile Services.
