Ironworkers Union says June 11 offer inferior to first
Representatives of Ironworkers Local 612 in Oswego criticized Northern Steel Company's June 10 offer as inferior to the initial proposal. Union officials said the latest terms reduce potential gains by 64 cents per hour per year, omit a 25 cent cost of living increase, and raise base wages to 5.81, 6.28, and 6.59 per hour over three years. They cited unequal overtime pay, poor communication, inadequate heating and ventilation, and disputed vacation calculations while defending Oswego workers’ higher skill and pay relative to competitors.
