Is it 50% over 10 years or something like that?
Edit: I just looked it up it’s over 6 years which is 7% annual raises. This barely catches up to the past 3 years of inflation l not to mention as you work at a place you should be getting better and more useful so should be making more. 50% is a bare minimum offer and sounds like turning it down makes sense.
The Alliance said its latest offer would increases wages by nearly 50% over the six-year contract, and triple employer contributions to retirement plans. The offer also would strengthen health care options and keep current language that limits automation.
The union has demanded 77% pay raises over six years to help deal with inflation. Many of the ILA workers can make over $200,000 per year, but the union says they must work large amounts of overtime to reach that figure.
High-end longshoreman wages without overtime are currently around 81k, so that $200k figure is sensationalizing it.
