THE United Steelworkers union said on Saturday that the strike by US refinery workers is expanding to two more plants early on Sunday due to unfair labour practices by oil companies.
Walk-outs at BP Plc's Whiting, Indiana, refinery and the company's joint-venture refinery with Husky Energy in Toledo, Ohio, shortly after 12 am local time on Sunday would bring the number of plants with striking hourly workers to 11, including nine refineries accounting for 13 per cent of US refining capacity.
