Employees at Lariviere Electric Ltd. voted unanimously in favour of a new two-year agreement, which provides employees with annual increases to the hourly wage rate.
Workers employed by Poirier Electric Limited voted 95% in favour of their new contract, which includes increases to the hourly wage rate every six months over the three-year term. The contract also provides improved tool and boot allowances, as well as living-out allowances.
Contracts for both companies also guarantee improved coverage for life insurance and vision. Employer-paid pension contributions will also rise to 8% for all employees.
