PG&E Electric Contract Management: Vote YES for ESC!
The Electric Contract Management Department is voting to join with 3,700 other professionals and engineers in more than 200 classifications at PG&E who are part of ESC Local 20. Through a union we gain a real voice at work in our pay, benefits, and working conditions. Join us. Vote YES for ESC Local 20!
Working From Home Extended Through June
ESC and PG&E have agreed to extend LOA 20-04 for another 30 days – until the end of June. The LOA allows for hourly paid employees to work from home. It also specifies that when working OT meals, employees get the half-hour missed meal payment, but not the $15/20 meal reimbursement. So in short, all the current conditions will remain in place for another month. During that time, we will continue discussions with PG&E about the possibilities and processes for returning to the workplace and continued working from home. If you have thoughts or concerns around those issues, please contact your union representative.
PG&E Contract Extension Ratified!

LOA 20-07 10% Premium Pay During COVID-19 Period
This Letter of Agreement replaces the previous LOAs (20-05 and 20-06) on double-time. Instead of double-time during overtime hours, this LOA provides for 10% premium pay for all hours (including regular hours) spent working at a PG&E office or in the field. This applies to both hourly-paid and monthly-paid employees.
