(WHO WE ARE )
The Stel Salaried Pensioners Organization (SSPO) was formed by a group of volunteers, previously long term employees, now retired, who first of all, hope that Stelco thrives and prospers for many years but now find the present situation in CCAA very disturbing.
We have no agenda other than to see that all salaried pension plan members from all Ontario based plants have their pensions and benefit plans defended and treated fairly in whatever the future holds.
There are approximately 3,500 people covered by the various salaried plans across Ontario.
