End in sight for Oregon Steel labor dispute The Business Journal of Portland
The National Labor Relations Board has decided not to file an unfair labor practices lawsuit against Oregon Steel Mills Inc.'s Rocky Mountain Steel Mills division, which means the dispute at the mill in Pueblo, Colo., may be resolved soon.
The NLRB decision came three months after the Steelworkers of America ratified a new contract to end the dispute, which has lasted for six years.
"Even if the government had ultimately been successful in further litigation, it could not have produced the renewed stability in collective bargaining that this settlement has produced,'' said B. Allan Benson, director of the NLRB's Denver office, in a statement issued Thursday. "That relationship will benefit the working men and women at the Pueblo mill every bit as much as the very significant amount of money that they will receive to remedy their losses since 1997."------------------------------------------- posted 8:06 AM :: reference link ::
