Steel pact studied as 3 wage hikes eyed in steel talks
Pittsburgh United Steelworkers study a three year contract proposal calling for three annual wage increases of 17.5 cents each in response to a May 1 strike threat. The plan aligns with 3.2 percent wage guidelines from the Presidents Council of Economic Advisers and follows an initial, higher demand. The union and industry negotiators met for a late hour session led by USW President David J. Mac Donald and U.S. Steel’s R. Conrad Cooper with no immediate industry reaction. If no agreement, a nationwide strike by about 450,000 workers could begin at midnight April 30.
