From the Daily Wire:
On Monday, the union rejected a last-minute offer from port ownership, represented by the United States Maritime Alliance, which offered the union a nearly 50% wage raise. The alliance also said it offered to triple employer contributions to employee retirement plans, better health care options, and to keep the current language around automation and semi-automation.
WOW, that sounds like a really sweet deal.
Just maybe the USMA made the offer KNOWING that 50% of the employees CAN be FIRED right after the deal is signed.
Does anybody know how many people get replaced when automation is used? For example, if original staff was 1000, does automation drop it to say 300-400?
