Union workers reject Canam contract amid lockout standstill
Union officials report 60 or more coworkers in line with the second gift wore in the lockout. The company offered a $200 signing bonus, but workers deemed the offer a slap in the face. Canam Manac's vice president says the union turned down a months-in-the-making final contract, with the dispute centering on attendance policy, raises, and cost of living. Canam, a major steel joist maker with plants in Columbus, Jacksonville, Lafayette, Sunnyside, and Washington, posted strong 1998 profits and $1 billion in sales.
