US Steel to Idle Lorain Tubular Operations
Written by Sandy Williams
US Steel announced Monday it will idle its US Steel Tubular Operations in Lorain, Ohio. In a letter to employees, US Steel said the layoffs are a “result of a decline in tubular market conditions, which is impacting demand for the plant’s products.”
Layoffs affecting 614 employees will begin around March 8 and continue through May 2015. US Steel issued the 60-day notice to union members in accordance with the Work Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN) on January 5.
