UMWA Announces Tentative Agreement with Iron Senergy at their Cumberland Mine in Waynesburg, PA
[TRIANGLE, VA] The United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) announced today that it has reached a tentative collective bargaining agreement with Iron Senergy for its Cumberland mine in Greene County, Pennsylvania.
UMWA members will hear a contract explanation at a meeting early next week and then will hold a ratification vote two days later. Details of the tentative agreement will not be released until after the ratification vote.
“I commend Secretary-Treasurer Sanson and our entire negotiating team for their hard work in reaching this tentative agreement with the company. But let me be clear, this decision belongs to the membership and the membership alone. It is ultimately up to them to determine whether this agreement meets their needs and whether they choose to ratify it,” said International President Cecil E. Roberts.
The UMWA represents approximately 500 members at Cumberland Mine, which utilizes longwall mining.
