Steelworkers avert nationwide strike with eleventh hour deal
U S Steel and the United Steelworkers reached a 30 percent pay hike backed by large fringe benefits. The agreement covers about 350000 workers and includes a minimum $1 pay raise, unlimited cost of living protections, improved pensions and life insurance, nine paid holidays, and enhanced unemployment benefits up to 110 weekly. Early shift refusals and stockpile use loom as companies plan for potential layoffs. Union and industry leaders call the settlement inflationary but aimed to spare the economy a damaging strike.
