Highlights of US Steel Labor Contract
Written by Sandy Williams
The negotiating committee at US Steel reached a tentative agreement on a new labor contract on Saturday, Dec. 19. Although terms of the contract will not be officially released until after ratification, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette obtained a copy and revealed some of the content.
The new contract references slowdowns for the company including those at US Steel at Fairfield Works and the delayed construction of the EAF in Birmingham, Ala. US Steel plans to cut capital expenditures to $1.2 billion during the three year period of the new contract.
