Toyota has increased wages for most of its U.S. auto-factory workers, following the United Auto Workers' (UAW) successful strike against Detroit carmakers. The UAW's victories include pay hikes, job security, and the right to strike over factory closures. UAW President Shawn Fain is now planning to organize nonunion manufacturers, including Toyota and Tesla. Ford's tentative contract with the UAW has received an 82% vote of approval from workers at a Michigan factory. Chrysler-parent Stellantis has agreed to build a new $3.2 billion battery plant and invest $1.5 billion in a new mid-size truck factory in Illinois under its tentative labor agreement. One of the UAW's biggest victories was securing protection for autoworkers affected by the historic shift to electric vehicles.
The United Auto Workers’ president says there could be a nasty fight ahead to organize workers at Ford’s jointly-owned electric battery plants, after the company declined to join its competitors in agreeing to ease the unionization process https://t.co/YNlQ48bp2d
