Century Aluminum may shut Mt. Holly in August

摘要

Chicago-based Century Aluminum has set the end of August as the deadline for resolving its months-long dispute over a power supply agreement for its Mt. Holly smelter. “We need to find a solution here over the next couple of months or we’re looking at a decision which we don’t want to contemplate at the beginning of July of whether we need to give that notice or not,” Bless said in an earnings call, referring to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Act Notice, which must go out 30 days before any mass layoff at US plants employing more than 100 people.
