Latrobe Specialty Steel strikers protest plan to use temps

Associated Press

LATROBE Union workers from Latrobe Specialty Steel Co. are protesting the company’s plan to use temporary workers during a strike.

Some 350 union steelworkers are on strike due to a dispute over the company’s three-year contract proposal. The strike began May 1.

Early Monday, members of United Steelworkers Local 1537, retirees and community supporters protested the latest move by the company to bring in temporary workers to continue production during the strike.

Union members oppose the company’s offer to increase bonuses while freezing hourly wages and cost of living adjustments during the three-year contract. The company has offered a $6,000 bonus this year and $5,000 bonuses over the next two years.
