Labor contract was to go to 2024
WASHINGTON – Congressman Jim Hagedorn, R-Minn., said he’s asked the U.S. Department of Labor to investigate Crenlo Engineered Cab, which he said has threatening to shut down its Rochester facilities if workers don’t renegotiate their contract. Layoffs, he said, would affect 500 workers. Hagedorn said a 2019 labor agreement supposed to be effective until 2024. Crenlo’s parent company is pushing employees with reduced scheduled pay raises, adjustments to health and dental plans, and revisions to overtime and holiday pay calculations, Hagedorn said.
