The union, IAPE 1096, has asked for a 10 percent increase in 2023 and 8 percent increases in 2024 and 2025. The company, meanwhile, has been offering a 3 percent raise, according to the union.
The company has also offered 0.25% lump sum payment to offset health care premium increases. Those premiums, as proposed by the company, could result in up to 30% increases for those with dependents, according to the union.
The union notes that the company has seen record profits and could afford the pay hike.
