A weeklong strike at Warrior Met Coal in Brookwood will continue after its union of workers voted ‘no’ to the company’s proposals on a new contract for the miners.
Employees at Warrior Met Coal in Brookwood have been on strike for one week. On Wednesday, they were presented with a contract that could end the strike, but some miners say the contract is not good enough.
Workers at the Warrior Met Coal mine have been on strike since Thursday, protesting unfair labor practices like being forced to work almost every holiday.
This strike could include over 1,100 workers across all of Warrior Met's operations including the #4 mine, the #5 preparation plant, the #7 mine, and its Central Shop.
