• Increased pay
• Secure wage rates for additional job classifications
• Kept insurance premiums affordable
• Improved paid funeral leave benefits
• Increased vacation time for newer employees
• Protected additional hours by seniority
Special thanks to the union members serving on the Negotiating Committee; we appreciate your time, effort, and thoughtful consideration of contract issues and proposals throughout the process:
