Walkout at Kaiser plant ends in total stoppage
In West Virginia on June 26 the Kaiser aluminum project saw a transition from a partial walkout to a total stoppage as Laborers Local 1085 pickets idled most workers. A return-to-work offer was made, but returning employees faced pickets. AFTE officials reported talks with Kaiser managers and unresolved issues lingered. Kaiser Construction oversees a 200 million dollar aluminum complex near Ravenswood.
