Alcan And Union Extend Contract
WEST VIRGINIA....
Officials with Alcan Rolled Products and hundreds union workers have extended their current contract again until 11:00 P.M. on Saturday, July 24th. The extension will allow time for members of the United Steelworkers Union Local 5668 to vote on the latest tentative contract agreement between the two sides. That agreement was reached late Thursday night after two days of negotiations. The tentative agreement includes the company's complete guarantee against layoffs tied to the new work reorganization and contracting out of work language. It's the third offer to come up for a vote. Informational meetings and voting are expected to be scheduled for sometime next week.
