Nassau judge blocks CSEA's health plan switch for now
Nassau County can't force members of its largest municipal employees union into a new, cheaper health plan until the two sides agree on how much workers will contribute toward premiums, according to a recent court ruling.
The temporary restraining order impacts about 4,000 members of the Civil Service Employees Association who work across county departments in a variety of titles from clerical to public works and prefer to stay in the state-run Empire health plan.
