On Saturday, March 19, 2022, UFCW Local 152 members at Snow’s/Bumble Bee Foods in Cape May, New Jersey ratified a new union contract!

The new five-year contract provides substantial wage increases for all members, improves the shift differential, and preserves affordable healthcare for our members! Additionally, workers who are chosen to be trainers (members chosen to train their coworkers) will now receive additional compensation on top of their typical hourly rate.

All employees will now receive new or replacement safety shoes when deemed necessary at no charge. Funeral leave was expanded. Finally, language was added to establish terms for the New Jersey Sick Leave Law.

Congratulations to our members and the Negotiating Committee, which consisted of Union Representative Greg Torian, Union Representative Tom Hartle, Shop Steward Michael Mack, and committee members Rob Freas and Mike Holden. Great job!
