Members of the Communications Workers of America ratified a new four-year agreement with AT&T covering 27,000 CWA-represented workers at AT&T Southwest. The settlement was ratified by a majority vote.

Among improvements, the agreement provides for a compounded 12 percent wage increase over the contract term, with a cost-of-living adjustment in the final year, and a 2 percent increase in the pension

bands in each contract year, also with a final year cost-of-living adjustment.

Negotiations are continuing for about 40,000 CWA-represented workers at AT&T Southeast (CWA District 3) and AT&T East (CWA Local 1298).
