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.

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.

The online voting to ratify the contract extension is now active. The voting period is 9 am Thursday, 4/2 through 5 pm Thursday, 4/9.
