USW Rejects Bonus and Healthcare Proposal from U.S. Steel
Written by Sandy Williams
The United Steelworkers (USW) has rejected a proposal by U.S. Steel that would provide variable bonuses instead of pay raises.
“We made it clear to the company that wage increases must be part of our new agreement and that we aren’t interested in the types of variable bonuses schemes that the company has been proposing in place of hourly increases,” said the USW in an update to its members. “We simply can’t rely on hypothetical income when our families have ever-increasing living expenses that we have to meet.”
