Puget Sound grocery store workers approve new contract, includes pay increase

DES MOINES, Wash. - On Saturday, Puget Sound grocery store workers approved a new three-year union contract that will include a wage increase and an elimination of lower pay scales.

The contact includes:

Wage increases of $4 to $9 an hour over the three years.

Elimination of lower pay scales in departments such as the deli and bakery which workers say are disproportionately staffed by women, immigrants, and people of color.

Increased funding to workers' Health Care plans.
