USWU Local #755 member Barbara Lazeri celebrates over 50 years with the County of Bergen

USWU Local #755 member Barbara Lazeri celebrated over 50 years with the County of Bergen in a gathering at the Bergen County Annex in Paramus on Friday, February 22nd. A good time was had by all in honor of Barbara and her tremendous dedication over the years while handling permits for county roads.

In 2017, Local 755 worked with our County Executive, Jim Tedesco III, before the completion of our present contract, to put in place a $15 minimum wage increase. Bergen County then became the first County in the state of New Jersey to provide this for full time government employees. Our UNION led by example, and showed the rest of the State that this is possible.

Former Executive VP Connie Keeler was honored for her years of service. Connie was a founding member of Local#755 and served as Executive VP for 15 years before becoming Executive Board Secretary.

Celebrating 20 years of service
