Metro reaches a 3-year contract with ATU
Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) reached a 3-year contract with the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU), representing over 2,300 bus and rail maintenance employees.
"Metro is pleased to announce that it has reached a 3-year agreement with the ATU, which includes a very modest increase in compensation and adjustments to the health and welfare program for union workers," said Metro General Manager Employee and Labor Relations Richard Hunt.
Metro and ATU reached a tentative agreement last Tuesday. ATU membership ratified the proposed contract Wednesday night and now the contract will be presented to the Metro Board of Directors for its approval at the Thursday, September 27 meeting.
