Health and Welfare benefits are specified at $5.54 per hour (effective 4/01/2021) with the 4/01/2022 and 4/01/2023 rates marked as "Reopener," indicating they are subject to future negotiation. Pension contributions are set at $1.52 per hour (4/01/2021), $1.55 per hour (4/01/2022), and $1.58 per hour (4/01/2023).

The agreement specifies comprehensive fringe benefits including 11 holidays per the collective bargaining agreement, employer-furnished uniforms (three initial wash/wear uniforms plus one additional every 12 months), vacation accrual ranging from one week after one year to five weeks after 20 years of service with pro rata calculation and no payout, training benefits of $0.20 per hour, 56 hours of accrued sick leave annually with no rollover or payout, three days of funeral leave for immediate family, and jury duty provisions allowing up to eight hours per day with employer payment of the difference between jury fees and daily earnings.
