Metallus, a leader in high-quality specialty metals, manufactured components, and supply chain solutions, and the United Steelworkers (USW) Local 1123 have reached a new tentative agreement for a four-year contract after the initial tentative agreement was not ratified by USW members on October 30, 2025. The date of the second vote will be set and announced by the union.
"We are pleased to have reached a new tentative agreement that reflects our shared commitment to competitive wages, solid benefits, and a safe working environment," said Mike Williams, chief executive officer of Metallus. "We believe this is a fair and equitable agreement and appreciate the good-faith efforts by all involved to continue this process and work toward an agreement that supports our employees, ensures job continuity, and reinforces Metallus' long-term success and growth objectives."
The current agreement had been extended until January 29, 2026 and covers approximately 1,200 bargaining employees at the company's Canton, Ohio operations.
