Baileyville mill workers intend to strike

KENNEBEC JOURNAL • October 6, 2023

About 90 workers at the Woodland pulp mill in Baileyville intend to strike at midnight Saturday saying management has not been bargaining in good faith. Unions representing machinists, millwrights and plant operators voted to strike following months of negotiations on a new contract, according to statement from the Maine AFL-CIO released Friday. Workers say management is trying to change job classifications that would endanger job security.
