2 Local Unions Reach Labor Agreements With This Bay Area County

MARIN COUNTY, CA — Two unions have ended negotiations as the Marin County Board of Supervisors approved new their labor agreements that will last until 2028.

On Tuesday, the Board of Supervisors approved new multiyear agreements with the Marin County Firefighters’ Association and Teamsters Local 856, which is the Probation Workers Unit.

The agreements included increased cost-of-living allowances, adjusted salaries and enhanced benefits, helping Marin remain a competitive employer in the North Bay, officials said.

“This is a major milestone for the County,” said Derek Johnson, the Marin County executive. “The progress we’ve made reflects strong collaboration and shared priorities across the organization. These contracts are a key part of Marin’s commitment to providing competitive compensation and a supportive workplace. Each agreement helps strengthen the foundation for the public services residents rely on every day.”

These agreements, following approvals on June 24, July 8, and July 15, mark continued progress in finalizing labor contracts for Marin's roughly 2,000 employees across 10 bargaining units.
