Maine state workers endure 36-hour shifts due to low pay and shortages, sparking calls for Gov. Mills to act.
Maine’s state employees, including critical workers like snow plow drivers, continue to face dangerously long 36-hour shifts due to low pay and staffing shortages, despite repeated studies showing they earn less than peers in both private and public sectors.
Union leaders and advocates urge Gov.
Janet Mills to act on the persistent pay gap, especially as the state’s budget surplus grows and she considers a Senate run.
They argue that fair compensation is essential for public safety, workforce retention, and government effectiveness, warning that inaction risks worsening shortages and endangering essential services.
