Some of California’s workers’ compensation judges could get a raise under a tentative agreement negotiated by their union, the Sacramento Bee reports.
The California Attorneys, Administrative Law Judges, and Hearing Officers in State Employment union, or CASE, on Tuesday informed its members that it has cut a deal with the state on a memorandum of understanding that would create a “WCJ II” position in California.
The new civil service classification would come with a salary that is “at least 5% higher” than that of the current WCJ I position, according to a copy of the MOU obtained by the Bee.
Members of the union still need to ratify the deal, as does the Legislature. If approved, the agreement would have a retroactive effective date of July 1, and it would remain in effect until July 1, 2019.

these are demanding and difficult jobs they should get paid at the level of a Superior Court Judge.
