E.J. Noble Hospital in Gouverneur, N.Y., and its 133 service employees represented by the Service Employees International Union have tentatively agreed on a new three-year contract, according to a Watertown Daily Times report.
The agreement would include no salary increase in the first year, but there would be a 1 percent increase in the second year and 1.5 percent increase in the third year, the report said. The salary increases will help cover the higher costs for health insurance. A family health coverage plan will increase from $100 per biweekly pay period to $130 per pay period in the third year.
The original offer proposed no salary increases for all three years.
