New Contract for New Jersey Bus Drivers
RWDSU Local 108 members in New Jersey who work as bus drivers for Tri-State Transportation have ratified a new three-year contract. “This contract recognizes that private sector bus drivers are professionals, with significant wage increases and other improvements,” said Local 108 President Charles N. Hall, Jr.
The contract brings $1 per hour pay raises each year of the agreement, and will reduce employees’ health care premium costs. In addition, Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday will be added as a paid holiday.
