Union workers at Kellogg will begin voting on a new contract.
- Kellogg Company reported that they have reached a tentative agreement with the union.
Union workers have been on strike the last two months and have been asking for better pay and benefits for all employees and better terms for temporary employees.
Employees will be voting on the new five-year contract on Sunday.
The latest agreement allows for all temporary employees with four or more years of service to move to permanent positions with better pay and benefits.
Union members had previously opposed Kellogg's two-tier employment system that did not offer temporary workers, who make up 30% of its workforce, a pathway to become permanent staff.
Kellogg is one of the several major U.S. companies that has faced worker strikes in the recent past as the labor market tightens and inflation reaches record highs.
