The CPI, representing major corrugated boxboard and packaging employers at some 50 plants mainly belonging to D.S. Smith, SmurfitKappa and SAICA, agreed to raise their wage offer from 2.1% to 2.5%. The offer, if accepted by members from the two unions in January, will be retroactive to 1 September 2010, the date a prior one-year accord expired. Unite National Officer Peter Ellis said the tentative settlement falls into the upper level of median pay awards in all industries, and Unite’s bargaining panel will strongly recommend acceptance. Bargaining started in July, but became bogged down in October when CPI offered a pay hike of less than half of the consumer price index.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: http:\u002F\u002Fwww.icem.org\u002Fen\u002F19-Pulp-Paper\u002F4180-UK’s-Unite-GMB …\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\">\u003Cspan class=\"Apple-style-span\">\u003Cem>\u003Cspan class=\"teaserText\">This article was published in the Collective Bargaining Newsletter.
