Story summary
  • JBS's Greeley, Colorado beef plant ratified a two-year contract on April 12, 2026, after a multi-week strike.
  • The agreement covers nearly 3,800 workers, includes a 33% wage increase, PPE-cost protection, and safeguards against healthcare-cost hikes.
  • The contract eliminates the historic pension benefit, a change JBS says it regrets, while it aims to restore stability.
  • The union withdrew seven unfair labor practice charges against JBS as part of the settlement.
