Timken contract concession rejected by USW in Canton
United Steelworkers members in Canton rejected TimkenCo proposed concessions by 727 to 722 amid doubts over a planned $500 million Canton steel mill. Timken had eyed about 150 acres for the plant, with 800 jobs planned, while alternatives included a Monroe County Tennessee site. About 6,500 eligible Canton workers voted, turnout around 22 percent, and unions cited changes to incentive pay and a 20 percent hiring-rate cut as points of contention. The company may reconsider whether to proceed with the Canton plant or relocate.
