Apparently money can’t buy happiness between Inco Ltd. and its largest union.
Despite company profits of $800 million (US) in 2004 and unionized workers sharing the largest nickel bonus cheques in history, the relationship between Local 6500 of the United Steelworkers of America (USWA) and Inco management is at its lowest point in almost 30 years, says Local 6500 president John Fera and USWA regional co-ordinator Dan O’Reilly.
