Steel Industry Wage Bureau

The Steel Industry Wage Bureau began as the Cooperative Wage Bureau (CWB). CWB was an unincorporated association, which did its business under the management of American Associated Consultants, Inc., located in New York City. All receipts, disbursements and taxes were handled in the name of American Associated Consultants, Inc., and CWB was operated as a division of that corporation through an agency-consulting basis. This structural organization existed from March 2, 1948 to December 31, 1976. The termination of the CWB as a part of American Associated Consultants, Inc. was done to obtain the benefits of the Pennsylvania Non-Profit Corporation Law, and to obtain complete independence of operation for the new corporation.

In December 1976 CWB filed incorporation papers as a non-profit corporation, renaming the organization as the Steel Industry Wage Bureau. The corporation was located in Pittsburgh, PA, and the Steel Industry Wage Bureau assumed effective January 1, 1977 the functions performed and services rendered by American Associated Consultants, Inc.
