Steelworkers Local 6500 is in the thick of contract negotiations with Vale.

The two sides have been meeting since the beginning of February to hammer out a new contract. The current contract is set to expire May 31.

Neither side will be commenting at this time, said Steelworkers vice-president Kevin Boyd.

Local 6500 has more than 2,400 members representing production and maintenance workers in mining, milling, smelting and refining at Vale’s Sudbury operations.

Steelworkers Local 6200, from Port Colborne, are also in negotiations.
