Members of Local 919 of the United Food and Commercial Workers voted Sunday in Hartford to accept Stop & Shop Supermarket Co.’s new three-year contract proposal after union officials recommended its approval, ending weeks of extended negotiations and the threat of a strike by 10,000 employees of Local 919, based in Farmington.
In New Haven, the 5,000 members of Local 371, based in Westport, unanimously voted to ratify the proposed contract, Fox CT’s John Charlton reports.
