B.C.'s public auto insurer has reached a tentative contract with union members who have been conducting job action for a month to demand higher wages.
The four-year deal involves Insurance Corp. of B.C. employees who are members of the Canadian Office and Professional Employees Union, including claims adjusters who deal with motorists involved in traffic accidents.
The agreement will provide a four per cent wage increase and is retroactive to March 31, 2010.
COPE Local 378 president David Black said the agreement addressed the union's three main concerns - wages, benefits and workloads.
