Railroad operator CSX announced Wednesday that its five-year labor agreement with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen (BLET) has been ratified by union members. The contract, which covers around 3,400 locomotive engineers—or roughly 20% of CSX’s frontline workforce—includes wage increases and health care improvements consistent with terms reached in prior deals with 13 other unions. According to the company, nearly 75% of its unionized employees are now covered under ratified agreements.
