Thirty-five to 40 scab workers were brought into Airo De Casting Inc., a Pittsburgh, Pa., company owned by Carthage-based Leggett & Platt Friday, stirring speculation the company is responding to a strike called last week by 300 workers represented by Local 1357 of Laborers International Union of North America, according to an article in Friday's Pittsburg Tribune-Review.
The arrival of the workers came after an ad was placed in the Tribune-Review trumpeting "competitive wages" and a "benefits package."
The York Pa. Review says the workers at Airo De Casting have been working under an expired contract since Jan 31 and have come to an impasse over health-care benefits and wages.
