The UMWA is calling on the Roundhill Group to come to the table to negotiate new contracts for workers who were terminated from the Remington Plant in Ilion.
Nearly 600 employees of Remington Arms were officially terminated as part of the recent bankruptcy sale, effective Sunday, October 25th. Employees say they found out by telephone. That's essentially the bulk of the workforce at the Ilion plant, although some workers like machinists, maintenance and custodial workers have been called back to work.
