The Sonoma County Board of Supervisors approved the last of 11 labor contracts up for renewal this year after more than nine months of labor negotiations. The contracts will boost most employees’ pay by a minimum of 13 percent over three years. The pay increases, combined with new hiring bonuses for some positions, will boost the county’s efforts to attract top talent. The board also approved updates to the Salary Resolution, which sets pay and benefits for about 750 workers who are not represented by a labor union. Meanwhile, the County is currently recruiting to fill roughly 100 open positions which are full-time, part-time and temporary employment opportunities.
