MCMINNVILLE, Ore. (AP) — Pilots for Evergreen International Airlines working without a contract since 1999 have rejected a proposed labor agreement six years in the making.
The McMinnville News-Register reports the vote was 96 percent to 4 percent against the proposal brokered by the National Mediation Board.
The Evergreen pilots union, which affiliated with the Air Line Pilots Association International three years ago in hopes of breaking a stalemate, represents 224 pilots and flight engineers.
The Evergreen pilots have received small increases in living expense allocations but have not gotten an actual pay raise.
