After many months of negotiations, and bargaining into the night last week, we reached a tentative agreement that addresses many of the issues brought forward by the membership. We secured significant wage increases and retro pay, we preserved our vacation and sick time, and we also won training language.

We will be holding two drop-in online vote meetings to answer any question about the tentative agreement. Details for joining will be mailed out with the vote instructions.

“My belief is that this is the best contract Zenith and Local 21 have had in the last 22 years.”
