 July 24, 2024 | BARGAINING | Workers at Wegmans Food Markets voted by a three-to-one margin to ratify their most recent collective bargaining agreement with Teamsters Local 118. The seven-year contract covers nearly 900 Teamsters who work in the warehouse, transportation, and skilled trades departments. Some of the improvements workers secured include a comprehensive health care package, protection from being forced to come in on days off, and enhancements made to seniority, overtime guarantees, scheduling, and paid time off. The workers also secured wage increases of 27 percent over the lifetime of the agreement, including pay rates that will reach $40 per hour for warehouse staff and $200,000 annually for drivers… “Grocery workers everywhere should take note—this is the power you could have as a Teamster,” said Ty Van Pelt, Teamsters Local 118 business agent and lead negotiator.
