Union Oil workers reach tentative contract settlement
Union Oil and the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers Union reached a tentative contract covering wages and national issues at all facilities. About 2,000 hourly workers have been on strike since January 17, with local issues at Beaumont Texas and Chicago still to resolve. California plants employ about 1,000 workers and others in San Francisco and Santa Maria may vote on the pact. If ratified, the agreement mirrors the industry pattern with a 26.8 percent wage rise over two years.
