The Vista Unified School District board is about to embark on a $247 million-dollar construction project. School officials will soon vote on whether or not they will adopt a project labor agreement with local union workers. Project agreements function as a bargaining agreement between a contractor and organized labor, in order to standardize work conditions and expectations for workers on a large construction project. Opponents for union labor believe that organized labor is less cost effective, however, other San Diego organizations have used union labor and found it to be efficient.
