The Chemical, Energy, Paper, Printing, Wood and Allied Workers Union has rejected an eight- to ten-percent wage offer by employers in the fuel industry.

The union’s John Appolis says the nearly two-week-long strike will continue until they reach an agreement.

Ceppwawu has been calling for a 13-percent increase and will meet again with employers tomorrow.

Solidarity workers have returned to work today.
