UPM Plywood mill’s labor dispute deepens as union rejects latest offer

Posted on April 16, 2025   |  

The labor dispute between UPM Plywood and Finland’s Industrial Union remains unresolved, with strikes ongoing.

UPM accepted a proposed settlement on Monday, but the Industrial Union rejected it.

The strike has halted production at UPM’s Finnish plywood mills, affecting about 1,000 workers.

UPM’s Otepää mill in Estonia continues operations without being affected by the strike.
