ATI and USW Workers Agree on Contract Extension
Written by Sandy Williams
The four year contract between USW local 1196 and Allegheny Technologies expired at 11:59 on June 30, 2015 but an agreement has been reached, for now, to keep the plant operational under terms of the previous contract. ATI and USW officials say there are still a number of significant issues to be resolved before a new contract can be agreed upon.
USW officials have indicated that ATI has been hiring security firms and staffing to replace workers should negotiations break down.
