[QUOTE="804troublemaker, post: 1127007, member: 40914"] The International Union announced it has reached a tentative agreement on new five-year national contracts at UPS and UPS Freight. Negotiations on some important supplements are still not completed. Details on the new national agreements are still sketchy due to the ongoing information brownout. All UPS Teamsters in company health plans will be moved into union health plans. The contract includes $1/hour increases in contributions to pension and healthcare benefits each year, the same amount as the last contract. Wage increases under the five-year deal are reportedly 70 cents in each of the first three years, followed by raises of 90 cents in the fourth year and one dollar in the last year. The IBT is reporting that part-timers will get a “substantial” pay increase including an increase in the starting wage rate for part-timers, which was falling behind minimum wage in a growing number of areas. The IBT press release does not include any information about the signature issues of production harassment and excessive overtime. The IBT reports that the UPS Freight agreement “resolves subcontracting issues.” The new subcontracting provisions of both agreements deserve careful scrutiny. Members will have a chance to review these and other important language changes before the contract ratification votes. First, the proposed contracts will be reviewed at separate upcoming meetings of two representatives from each UPS and UPS Freight local. TDU and Make UPS Deliver will provide detailed contract information as it becomes available. We urge all UPS and UPS Freight Teamsters to carefully review the proposed agreements, attend local union contract meetings, ask questions, and cast an informed vote Clear here to the read the Internatio [/QUOTE]
