Nashua Public Library Workers Statement
Support Nashua Public Library Workers:
Settle a Fair Contract Now
Our library’s value comes from the dedicated, trained staff who show up for our community every day, even after our contract expired June 30. We urge leadership to:
·Provide fair wages retroactive to July 1: Honor standard labor practices by ensuring wage increases match the rising cost of living and take effect retroactively to the expiration of the prior contract — rejecting arbitrary delays that penalize staff for working during negotiations.
·Guarantee job security and staffing continuity so workers and public services are protected throughout the renovation process.
·Bargain in good faith to reach an agreement that honors the essential work the library staff perform for Nashua taxpayers.
You cannot invest in building renovations while shortchanging the people who make it run. Settle a fair contract now.
