Labor Board Won’t Force CPS To Allow Clerks To Work From Home
The dispute between CPS and CTU has been going on for a while now.
CHICAGO (CBS) — A request is denied to allow more Chicago Public Schools employees to work from home, but the Chicago Teachers Union says conditions during the pandemic are still cause for concern. The dispute between CPS and CTU has been going on for a while now. School clerks and tech coordinators represented by the union don’t feel comfortable working in school buildings because of the pandemic, so CTU took action.
In late August, the union filed a grievance against CPS, arguing that clerks and tech coordinators should be allowed to work remotely instead of in buildings they feel are unsafe.
