NLRB Sets Steel Vote On Contract Offer
The National Labor Relations Board tentatively sets a steelworker vote for January 11 to 13 on the first contract offer from steel companies. The 116 day United Steelworkers strike ended November 7 by a Taft-Hartley injunction and an 80 day cooling off ends January 26. President David J. McDonald says the vote will not decide a strike, only whether workers accept the final offer. U.S. Steel has mailed workers a brochure detailing advantages of the offer.
