The school system agreed to grant certain PFT workers release time from district jobs in its most recent contract - which expired in 2013, though most of the terms of the pact are still being honored. The Fairness Center appears to object to the fact that the contract does not specifically require the union to reimburse the school system for the cost of carrying the workers, though it does so.
