Over the years, we have been able to make funds available to families facing life threatening illnesses, sponsor children's athletic leagues, and participate in the annual Bacon Bowl program. Most importantly, we work hard to protect the benefits, working conditions, training and equipment of our members so they can continue to work hard to protect all of us. |

Update on SPOG Pay Raise and Retro Checks
Posted
On: Jul 17, 2008 (09:48:08)
The Department has notified SPOG the new pay raise will be in effect on July 23, 2008 and will appear on the August 15, 2008 pay check. The retro portion of the pay adjustment will be paid by September 26, 2008. According to the department, the calculation of the retro check is very labor intensive as the time keeping and payroll personnel have to review each pay period for each officer since January 1, 2007. The department has assured SPOG that an announcement will be made in advance for those officers who want to use their retro check to increase their deferred comp. contribution. Please watch for that announcement. Your continued patience is appreciated by all involved.

SPOG Membership Overwhelmingly Votes to Accept Contract Offer
Updated
On: May 16, 2008 (15:11:00)
The Seattle Police Officers' Guild is pleased to announce that our membership of 1190 members has voted overwhelmingly to ratify the new contract offer. Ballots were counted today and 90% of the 1027 returned ballots voted to accept the contract offer. The ratification vote marks the end of nearly 23 months of contract negotiations between the City of Seattle and the Guild. The contract will be retroactive to January 1, 2007 and will be in effect until December 2010. The contract contains significant wage increases, a new 10-hour shift for patrol officers, as well as changes to the OPA disciplinary system to accommodate the recommendations from the Mayor’s Police Accountability Panel.
Sergeant Rich O’Neill, Seattle Police Guild President remarked, “This marks the end of a long negotiation process. This contract recognizes the hard work done by all Seattle Police Officers and rightfully compensates them as the highest paid officers in Washington State. The contract also illustrates that significant change can best be accomplished at the bargaining table when both sides bargain in good faith.”
