SECURITY WORKERS MAY BE LOCKED OUT OF THEIR JOBS AT NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
The security contractor at Xcel Energy’s Monticello nuclear power plant appears set to lock out some guards after a breakdown in contract negotiations.
The lockout would affect “lieutenants “ or “shift leaders,” whose contract expires at midnight Saturday, said Josh Haider, head of United Security Professionals Local 2. There are about 25 unionized lieutenants at the Monticello plant employed by G4S, a large global security firm.
G4S and Xcel have been training replacements for union guards over the past month, Haider said.
