Striking union workers at a Volvo truck plant in southwestern Virginia are scheduled to vote on a tentative agreement with the company later this week.
A number of workers who talked to the Free Press indicated the latest tentative agreement could fare better than the previous two, but they were split on whether they would vote for it. They said some of their main issues include the cost of health insurance, retiree health care, pay that doesn’t keep pace with the cost of living and raises that won’t cover insurance premiums.
