UFCW Local 400 members working at DanChem in Danville, Va. voted to ratify a strong new union contract on December 19.

The three-year collective bargaining agreement has many new highlights, including:

  • Substantial across-the-board pay increases each year
  • Additional holiday on Good Friday
  • Transition to “PTO” form of leave including carry over and cash out
  • New hire orientation language that gives us time to explain union membership and sign up new employees

Congratulations to our hard-working members at DanChem on your new union contract! And special thanks to our outstanding bargaining committee!
