US Steel Workers Offer to Work Under Old Contract During Negotiations
Written by Sandy Williams
The United Steel Workers said it would prefer to continue contract negotiations rather than seek a strike authorization from the membership. On Monday, June 1, the day before contract expiration, the USW offered to continue working under the previous contract while continuing negotiations with US Steel.
US Steel responded that it remained committed to operating “without disruption” during the contract negotiations and appreciated the union’s “commitment to extend the contract negotiations.”
