BHP Billiton Limited
(ASX:BHP) workers at the Olympic Dam mine have supported a four-year pay package.
The deal includes minimum pay rates, higher superannuation contributions and bonuses based on individual performance and the success of the company.
BHP says it “went through proper and appropriate process involving workforce bargaining representatives and representatives from the Australian Workers Union (AWU), who didn't oppose the agreement.”
However, the AWU urged employees to delay supporting the agreement.
BHP posted a net profit of $9.9 billion in the first half of its 2012 financial year.
