USW Seeks Strike Authorization from U.S. Steel Workers
Written by Sandy Williams
The United Steelworkers’ negotiating committee for U.S. Steel employees will be returning home to present informational meetings to members and seek a strike authorization vote.
U.S. Steel’s demand for a six-year contract with deep concessions and minimal wage increases has been rejected by the USW bargaining committee. The offered bonus and wage increase in the first three years will be offset by healthcare premiums and higher deductibles, said the USW.
