United Steelworkers Ratify Agreement with Vale in Ontario

Provided by Dow Jones

By Kelly Cloonan 




  United Steelworkers members in Sudbury, Ontario, ratified an agreement with mining and metals company Vale that provides for wage increases, further workplace protections and improved benefits. 



  The union said Monday the agreement includes a ratification bonus and guaranteed wage increases ranging from about 21% to 26%, reflecting negotiated increases and annual cost-of-living adjustments. 



  The agreement also secures paid sick days, a new health-care spending account and improvements to pensions, vision care, orthodontic coverage and short-term disability benefits, USW said. 



  USW's Local 6500 division has more than 3,000 members in the Sudbury area, representing production and maintenance workers in mining, milling, smelting and refining at Vale's Sudbury operations.
