United Auto Workers Strike : The United Auto Workers (UAW) strike against Detroit's three automakers Ford, General Motors and Stellantis entered four days on Monday. But there does not seem to be any immediate solution to this.

Let us tell you that last Saturday, negotiators from the United Auto Workers (UAW) and Ford Motor had “reasonably productive discussions” toward a new contract. The union said that while Stellantis Company, which owns Chrysler, has promoted its contract offer.

About 12,700 UAW workers are on strike as part of a coordinated labor action targeting three U.S. assembly plants after the last four-year labor agreement expired at 11:59 p.m. ET Thursday. At a plant for each of Detroit's three automakers.

Union negotiators and representatives from General Motors, Ford and Stellantis resumed talks Saturday, a day after the UAW launched the most ambitious American industrial labor action in decades. Stellantis said main bargaining talks would resume Monday, while some subcommittee talks at General Motors were scheduled for Sunday. UAW President Sean Fenn was scheduled to appear on two national news programs Sunday.

Stellantis said on Saturday that it has increased its offer. And a 20 percent increase has been proposed in the contract period of four and a half years. Which also includes an immediate 10 percent increase in salary. This matches proposals from GM and Ford.

The proposals are about half of the 40 percent wage increase the UAW is demanding by 2027. Which also includes an immediate increase of 20 percent. Mark Stewart, Stellantis' North American chief operating officer, told reporters last Saturday that the UAW rejected a proposal to restart operations at an assembly plant in Belvidere, Illinois, noting that the proposal would lead to contract expiration. Was dependent on reaching agreement before.

In late February, Stellantis indefinitely shut down operations at the Belvidere plant, citing the rising costs of electric vehicle (EV) production. The UAW criticized the company's position at the Illinois plant, saying now "they're taking it back." That's how they see these workers. A bargaining chip.

Stellantis said late Saturday night that he was willing to talk about the future of the plant. The company said the truth is that UAW leadership ignored Belvidere in favor of a strike. The strike has halted production at three plants in Michigan, Ohio and Missouri. Which produces the Ford Bronco, Jeep Wrangler and Chevrolet Colorado as well as other popular models.

On Friday, Ford said it was indefinitely laying off 600 workers at its Michigan plant due to the impact of the strike. Which makes Bronco. At the same time, GM told about 2,000 workers at its Kansas car plant that their factory would likely close on Monday or Tuesday due to a parts shortage caused by a strike at the GM Missouri plant. In addition to higher wages, the UAW is demanding shorter work weeks, restoration of defined benefit pensions and stronger job protections. Because vehicle manufacturers are shifting to EV.
