Coal Strike Ends After Long Negotiations and Wildcat Tie
Miners vote to end a lengthy walkout after months of talks in which wildcat strikes pressured the coal industry. The new contract awards a 39 percent wage rise through 1981, ends the right to a local strike by vote, and shifts health care to company chosen insurers with miners paying up to 200 dollars for care. The industry guarantees future health and pension benefits while conceding on long sought local strike rights.
