Steel wage talks hinge on broader policy issues
The steel companies argue that severance pay vacation pay sick leave insurance and other so called hidden wage increases belong in broader policy debates rather than wage negotiations. They say Congress should handle higher taxes farm price stabilization and other aims under the seven point program rather than in steel wage talks. They also note any wage rise would trigger steel price increases and expect their representative to state this position again.
