Term was 5yrs 0% in years 1 and 2, 1% increase in yr 3, 2% in 4 & 5 Trades adjusment of $0.75 in year 3 Vacation unchanged pension, we opted out of the DB plan when the stock did its first freefall in 05, but both parties contribute 5% in the DC plan we know have We also negotiated a better Dental benefit than we currently have although it doesn't kick in till Jan 2011, negotiated 10hr shift for our maintenance day workers. 2prs of coveralls for everyone per year.
However Tembec was very up front telling us that next bargaining they plan on attacking the Shift Differential and Sunday Letter, and that we were lucky to keep it this bargain.

Thank you very much for the info. Glad to see you guys started back up and best of luck this year. The CTMP pulp will be very important for Tembec this year.
Have you been able to get most of your workers back yet?
I would imagine one of the most difficult places would be in the boiler house? have they all returned?
