An agreement between sanitation company Republic Services and the union representing its workers was reached Monday, bringing an end to the weeks-long strike that impacted service in Chula Vista and some parts of the city of San Diego.
Two weeks in and sanitation workers in San Diego County remain on strike, leaving trash to pile up in front of homes and businesses. Union members of Teamsters 542 said their message remains the same: they deserve better wages, benefits, and safety equipment.
