United Steelworkers push for lifetime jobs and wage gains
The United Steelworkers seek lifetime job guarantees for about 500000 steel workers and a substantial wage rise with stronger cost of living protections. The 29 page bargaining plan also hints at a 32 hour work week and expanded unemployment benefits as management negotiates led by J Bruce Johnston of U S Steel. The talks cover 340000 workers at 18 big producers and set patterns for 150000 workers at smaller firms.
