About Us
Local Lodge 1943 started as an independent labor union in 1943 as the AEIF, (Armco Employees Independent Federation), and became one of the largest independent labor unions in the United States. Located in Middletown, Ohio, we represent over 1600 production, maintenance, service workers and office workers at AK Steel Middletown Works (formerly Armco Steel Co., L.P. Middletown Works). We also represent 56 hourly workers at Clark Steel in Monroe, Ohio. Our members at AK Steel (an integrated carbon and stainless steel company) produce the best quality steel, primarily for the automotive and appliance industry. We continue to focus on providing through the collective bargaining process a high standard of living for our members, both in economic terms and in the quality of work life.
On July 27th 2006, We became members of the IAM (International Association of Machinist) Union after a representation election between the IAM (International Association of Machinist) and the USW (United Steelworkers).
