RESULTS OF CONTRACT RATIFICATION VOTE
President Niccollai reported late this afternoon that the votes taken among the Stop & Shop and ShopRite members were individually counted by a member of our Elected Contract Committee from each Company, along with the Union Contract Committee Members.
CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS UPDATE
President Niccollai reported this evening that a tentative settlement has been reached with Stop & Shop, ShopRite and Foodtown for a new agreement, which will guarantee no co-pay medical benefits to both full-time and part-time members for the entire term. This accomplishment is monumental and comes at substantial cost to our Employers.
Other noteworthy highlights include:
• Continuation of our Defined Benefit Pension Plan.
