Labor negotiations pause for Alcoa; Arconic begins talks with USW

Contract negotiations between Alcoa and a United Steelworkers (USW) local in New York remain on pause as the two sides work through economic proposals.

“Although we have made progress on most local issues, language issues and a few economic issues, we have economic proposals that we are still far apart on,” the bargaining committee for USW Local 420-A wrote in a message to members March 19.
