The Woburn town employees chapter is joining SEIU Local 888’s dental and vision plans as part of a new contract. The city has agreed to administer the payments.

The three-year contract includes 2 percent raises each year, plus an extra half a percent when employees have served the town for 10 years. There is also updated anti-discrimination language.

In addition, new employees get time off for a one-hour orientation in which union leaders can meet with them
