CSX CSX Corporation

CSX Corp. (NASDAQ: CSX) announced today that the railroad has reached tentative agreements on new five-year collective bargaining agreements with the Transportation Communications Union (TCU), the Brotherhood of Railway Carmen (BRC), and General Committee of Adjustment GO-049 of the International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers – Transportation Division (SMART-TD), representing train service employees on the Northern Mid-Atlantic District territory of the CSX system.

“I want to recognize the labor leaders who have stepped up to serve the best interests of their members and our employees in getting these historic deals done well in advance of their contracts even coming open for negotiation,” said Joe Hinrichs, president and chief executive officer. “CSX and our labor partners understand our employees don’t want to wait several years for their next pay raise. We thank the organizations for working with us to demonstrate that our ONE CSX culture and values aren’t just words, they are our collective path forward to an improved experience for both our employees and customers. We have also reached out to our other labor partners and look forward to promptly reaching agreements for all CSX union employees patterned on these same terms.”

The tentative agreements, which are subject to ratification by the unions’ membership at CSX, come more than four months before the current collective agreements become amendable under the federal Railway Labor Act. Terms include average wage increases of 3.5% per year over five years and improvements in paid vacation and health care. These tentative agreements cover approximately 25% of CSX’s front-line union workforce.

Additional details will be shared during the unions’ ratification processes.
