BATTLE CREEK, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — Negotiations between Kellogg’s and the union representing nearly 1,400 workers who have been on strike since October 5 were scheduled to resume on Monday.
Talks broke off earlier this month after an offer from the company was rejected by the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union. The company said at the time they provided their “last best and final offer”. But the union says it did not achieve “a pathway to fully vetted workers without takeaways”.
The union has been on strike at four different Kellogg locations, including Battle Creek.
Bloomberg reports the U.S. plants affected by the strike are being operated by a combination of replacement workers and salaried staff and that Kellogg’s has been importing cereal from factories abroad to maintain supply during the strike
