Company updates its Comprehensive Offer

The bargaining committees resumed negotiations this week and got back to conversations on proposals related to wages, healthcare, and pension. Today, the Company passed an updated Comprehensive Offer across the table to reach a fair agreement.

Prioritizing your Paycheck

Our wage proposal is a significant wage investment on the part of the company and will mean higher earning potential for all associates.

Top-rated Grocery Journeyperson associates would receive an initial wage increase in the first year of 4.14% and 9.32% in wage increases over the life of the agreement. Top-rated Meat Journeypersons would receive a 3.48% wage increase in the first year and 7.84% in wage increases over the life of the agreement.

Prioritizing your Healthcare

We understand how essential healthcare is for you and your families, which is why we are committed to keeping your industry-leading healthcare coverage reasonably priced, so you have the security of skilled, high-quality care when you need it.

Despite rising healthcare costs, Fred Meyer associates will continue to have some of the lowest healthcare costs in the state.

Prioritizing your Retirement

We updated our previous Offer to include enhancements to the variable annuity plan.

Our goal is to ensure a fair and balanced agreement that supports you, our customers, and the communities we serve, putting more money in your pockets and providing industry-leading healthcare and retirement for your future while keeping groceries affordable.

The Company and Union bargaining committees are scheduled to meet tomorrow, April 30.

Thank you for your continued uplifting service to our customers and communities.
