32BJ Service Employees International Union reached an agreement with BU for custodians, tradespeople and grounds and maintenance workers at BU and BUMC.

Just more than 2,000 public school staff members in Massachusetts received layoff and non-renewal notices this spring as budgets continue to tighten due to the pandemic.
