A source at United Public Workers tells KHON-2 eighty-percent of members approved walking of the job if that’s what it takes to secure a new contract.
Unit one members have been working without a contract since July 1st.
The union is opposed to any across the board pay-cut that does not include furloughs.
Members are also upset over the prospect of a 50-50 split on health insurance premiums.
The strike vote does not mean a strike is imminent.
