Youngstown steel plant layoffs leave 1000 hard core unemployed
Miros and Teresa Maszczak illustrate the region’s toll from Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. layoffs that eliminated 4100 jobs in 1977 and pushed about 1000 workers into long-term unemployment. Local officials cite modest regional job gains yet ongoing dependence on a shrinking steel and auto industry. The Mahoning Valley Economic Development Corp backed by a sizable federal grant hopes to lure new industry, including a potential airplane maker, while a university foundation aids retraining. Maszczak, who will earn an engineering degree this summer, transitions to a higher paying job after a long mix of benefits and training efforts.
