Hundreds of workers at a biotech company in Kankakee County went on strike late Wednesday night.
More than 700 workers walked off the job at 11 p.m. Wednesday.
CSL Behring is a global pharmaceutical company. They manufacture, in part, medications for bleeding disorders and immune deficiencies. The plant in Bradley is the second largest employer in Kankakee County with a total workforce of 1,500.

Meanwhile CSL Behring company officials said they offered workers pay hikes and other competitive benefits.
