Actually it does affect the guys already on property that were hired in 2011 or later. The scale reduces by 1 year each year, so the highest pay rate you could reach depends on your date of hire.
2011 hires will reach the 7 year cap
2012 hires will reach the 6 year cap
2013 hires will reach the 5 year cap
2014 hires will be capped at 4 years
Keep in mind these scales will be not be adjusted annually for inflation. The contract lasts for 10 years. The average price of gasoline 10 years ago was $1.88.
My pay is already a running joke in my family, if this passes it may be time to look for other opportunities.
