USW bargaining committee prepares for capex talks with Cliffs

Cleveland-Cliffs and the United Steelworkers (USW) union plan to discuss capital expenditures (capex) as part of their ongoing master contract negotiations.

The USW on Friday informed members its bargaining committee has begun identifying capex and repair and maintenance needs at each of Cliffs’ facilities as part of ongoing contract talks with the Cleveland-based steelmaker. The union expects capex and repair/maintenance conversations to proceed as they have in past negotiations.
