Major Provisions of Latest Proposed Coal Pact
The tentative contract between United Mine Workers and coal firms raises raises of 1 dollar in year one and 70 cents in years two and three, with health benefits guaranteed though costs shared. It cuts hospitalization payments to zero for miners and caps medicine and doctor costs, while pensioners face a 150 dollar cap. Retirement benefits rise to 275 dollars for pre 1976 retirees, and productivity incentives may be introduced at approved mines. The agreement leaves wildcat strike penalties undecided, unlike the rejected deal which allowed firing leaders.
