Frontier Communications, a provider of DSL Internet, phone and video service, and the union that represents their workers, the Communications Workers of America (CWA District 2-13) have ended their strike in West Virginia and Virginia.
The strike had only lasted for three weeks and was ended after the two came to a new contract agreement. The union representing 1400 workers called the strike in early March after the two had failed to reach a contract agreement.
Frontier's DSL Internet, telephone and video service was not unduly affected by the strike.
After claiming that striking workers threatened violence to Frontier employees, committed vandalism and destruction of property, blocked access to property and other issues, Frontier had filed a request for an injunction against the striking CWA membersalleging “rampant unlawful activity.” The CWA called the injunction request an “overreaction.”
Frontier provides DSL Internet in West Virginia and other areas across the United States.
