No Progress in ArcelorMittal Negotiations Says USW
Written by Sandy Williams
Progress appears stalled at the bargaining table with neither ArcelorMittal nor the USW willing to make concessions. In Update 12 on Friday, the USW reported progress in the labor negotiations has been “slow.”
“Although the company says that it wants a new contract with our union, that desire has not been reflected in its proposals at the table,” the union said. “While we continue to meet, progress has been slow and ArcelorMittal persists in seeking major changes to our agreements that would reduce the security of our jobs, earnings, and benefits.”
