NEW YORK (Reuters) - General Electric Co
Voting in recent days, union locals approved a four-year contract governing electrical workers, machinists, steelworkers, autoworkers, Teamsters and engineers, the two sides said.
"We now have a ratified four-year labor agreement with all of our unions," GE spokesman Jeff Caywood said in a statement emailed to Reuters on Wednesday.
Representatives of the IUE-CWA, the union that took the lead in negotiations, were not immediately available to comment. A statement posted on Wednesday on the union's website said all locals had approved the deal and 77 percent of members had voted.
GE improved its contract offer after workers narrowly rejected an earlier offer last month.
