SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Michiana NIPSCO workers were outside the company's building in downtown South Bend on Thursday looking to find common ground on a new contract.
Workers told ABC57 they want NIPSCO to guarantee fair working conditions, respect the contribution of employees, and support long term success of the company and community.
Jason Critchlow, Portage Township Trustee, stated, "Nobody wants to have a strike, and I think that's the last resort, because, you know, a lot of bad things come from that. These are guys with families. These are women with families. And if they're if they have to go on strike, then you know, nobody's getting paid. There could be service disruptions. It could be a big problem for our community."
Workers say they will continue to march until their demands are met.
