GE and Union Hail Five Year Wage Pact
The General Electric Company and CIO Electrical Workers Union reach a new five year contract offering minimum total wage increases of 34 5 cents per hour for 100 000 GE workers. Wages average about $1 99 per hour with annual rises and a three year reopening for employment security talks. The UE calls the agreement unfortunate and says it falls short of workers' needs. Negotiations with other unions remain unresolved.
