Union workers from Wabtec Corp.’s (NYSE: WAB) Wilmerding and Greensburg facilities gathered Saturday, April 27 to rally against the company’s proposed concessions as the workers face a contract that expires on May 1, according to UE Field Organizer Ben Wilson. If an agreement is not reached, the union workers may strike as soon as Wednesday when the contract expires.
