Your Bargaining Team met with Management on January 25 to negotiate a new contract.

“We worked very hard all through the night and reached a settlement around 1:30AM, that we can be proud of. Make sure to update your contact information with UFCW to get your ballot and have your vote counted.” 

— Shelby Tyner 

Some of the improvements we won include:

• Competitive wage increases each year of the contract.

• Maintained BCBS medical plan and Mitigated healthcare increases; plus added a “Healthy Value Plan” option

• Several improvements to strengthen and clarify the contract language

• Stronger Staffing language 

• Enhanced grievance rights

• Ratification bonus of $750.00 (if employed before May 31, 2020)
