The first year of the agreement includes a combined across-the-board and market adjustment of $1.25/hour, or no less than a total of 6%. Wages will increase 3% in each of the remaining two years.
The contract will be effective through Sept. 30, 2028. It is pending approval by the NMU Board of Trustees.
