California Voice: CSU reneged on pay increases for skilled trades workers

I’ve worked at Cal State San Bernardino since 2017, supervising a team of skilled trades workers who maintain the buildings that thousands of students and faculty rely on every day. My crew is one of many across the California State University system whose work keeps campuses safe, functional and open to the nearly half a million students CSU serves.

Our work is hands-on and might be less visible than the roles people typically associate with universities, such as professors or administrators.
