The IBEW 1245 members at Moss Landing Power Plant have ratified a new three-year agreement by a vote of 20-10.
The agreement includes general wage increases of 5% in 2024, 3.5% in 2025, and 3.25% in 2026. Additionally, the union negotiated the addition of a new contractual holiday (Martin Luther King Day); and increase in bereavement leave from three to five days; increase in jury duty leave from 10 to 15 days; improvements to vacation scheduling language; three new discretionary benefits; and improved scheduling language for employees in the battery storage group. In exchange for these improvements, the union agreed to the employer’s request to adjust/prorate vacation and sick leave accruals for new hires during their first calendar year.
The IBEW 1245 negotiating team included members Weston Miller, Nick Covello, and Ted Ursino, Senior Assistant Business Manager Al Fortier, and myself.
