Negotiation update 10 1 26

Bolton Point

Today, new proposals were presented to Management. We presented a 30% wage
increase over three years and were given a LOW BALL 9% rebuttal, which we
countered with a 27% (10,9,8).

We also presented proposals on Longevity pay increases, license incentive increases,
and shift differential increases. Management countered all of them for us to consider.

We revisited the hourly change for distribution with a signed letter of support from the
distribution manager. This proposal now needs further passing of the buck back to
management. This time change was proposed to meet the needs of our municipality
workers, contractors, and customers.

 

We managed to TA (Tentatively Agree) on the following:

  • Retiree health insurance language changes
  • Increase in vacation days
  • Additional (3rd ) steward to represent all departments
  • Health Insurance Cost Share – 15% per year for the next 3 years
  • Term of Contract (3 years)

 

Our next negotiation session is on 10/22/26 at 8am.

In Solidarity,
Bolton Point Negotiation Team
