UTICA, N.Y. — Oneida County reached a collective-bargaining agreement on Wednesday with the Oneida County Sheriff’s Office and the union that represents corrections and court employees.
The new four-year agreement covers correction officers, court security officers, court attendances, and civilian clerical support. The Oneida County Sheriff’s Department Employees Local 1249, Council 82 union approved the contract by a vote of 106-4 and the Oneida County Board of Legislators unanimously approved it.
