“We're out here today on an informational picket, bringing the issues out to the pubic and the community,” Local 11-63 President Brady Nelson said.
Retiree benefits were the issue at hand for the workers. Nelson said workers rejected Sappi's offer earlier this month.
“The proposal would have split our local right down the middle. They were proposing to take some retiree benefits away from our members that had less than 15 years of service by the end of this year,” Nelson said.
