Bethel Park School District approves new contract with transportation staff
The Bethel Park School District has approved a new contract with its transportation staff.
The district said a three-year contract was approved on Thursday.
A new van driver will join the department. A CDL will not be needed for that position.
Payment for drivers will be split into two tracks. Drivers on the first track will receive a starting wage of $22.94 per hour with family benefits and the second will be paid $25 an hour with individual benefits.
'This agreement shows that everyone's voice was heard,' said Director of Financial and Personnel Services Anthony Piscioneri, who spearheaded the negotiations for the school district. 'It was a truly collaborative process, with both sides sharing ideas and working toward solutions that balanced everyone's needs. It's a great example of the district and transportation union's shared commitment to Bethel Park families.'
District officials, bus drivers, aides, mechanics and administrators were all involved in the negotiating process.

JPMorgan Can Retain Junior Bankers With Cash, Not Threats
Investment banks and private equity firms are fighting over the kids again. Both sides want the smartest graduates hungry to get rich (many have monster student debts, to be fair), but someone must put them through Wall Street Boot Camp, the basic training of financial modelling, pitching clients and selling deals. Banks typically bear those costs — and they're fed up of private equity free riding on their investments. Hoping for an informal code of honor between competing firms, or threatening dire consequences for junior analysts who don't play by some imagined set of rules won't fix the problem. A better solution would be to use the tool that governs everything else in finance: money.
