KOHLER, Wis. (AP) — A union official says Kohler Company workerscontinued to strike through the holiday weekend and they remain united in their desire to do away with a two-tiered pay scale that they say unfairly limits newly hired employees to about $13 an hour. Union spokesman Pete Behrensprung said Friday that Kohler workers have been picketing “around the clock since November 15th,” including in the rain on Thanksgiving and that they would continue to do so until their demands are met. He says the workers haven’t heard anything new from the company and that no new negotiations have been scheduled. Kohler’s president and CEO, meanwhile, wrote a letter to the Sheboygan Press on Wednesday, saying the workers’ demands would lead to job cuts.
