The city has reached a tentative $5.5 billion contract agreement with the Police Benevolent Association (PBA), Mayor Eric Adams announced on Wednesday, marking the second major labor deal his administration has negotiated with the city’s public sector unions and the first with one of its uniformed unions.

The eight-year tentative agreement, which is retroactive going back to 2017 — covering the six years the PBA has gone without a contract — includes raises of 2.25% for 2017, 2.50% for 2018, 3% for 2019, 3.25% for 2020 and 2021, 3.50% for 2022 and 2023 and 4% for 2024.
