Voting Set to Begin for AEIF Workers7/24/2006 The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) will conduct an election on July 26-27 for more than 2,200 members of the Armco Employees Independent Federation (AEIF), locked out by AK Steel Corp. since February 28.
AEIF leaders are endorsing the IAM as the best choice for its members who are hoping to end the lockout and find a replacement for the company’s seriously under funded pension plan. IAM membership would give members of the 63-year old independent union access to IAM resources and an opportunity to take part in the fully funded IAM National Pension Fund. The NLRB vote will take place over a two-day period with results expected following the close of the polls at 1 p.m. on July 27.
