This is the UAW strike podcast and this is your update for 10-24-2023.
The UAW strike against Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis entered its 38th day and The union is seeking better wages, benefits, and job security for its members.
On October 20, the UAW president, Shawn Fain, said that there had been "serious movement" in negotiations with all three automakers. However, he also said that there was still "more to be won."
On October 21, Ford, GM, and Stellantis all offered the UAW a 23% wage increase over four years, as well as an end to the tier wage system. However, the union has not yet accepted these offers, saying that they do not go far enough on other issues, such as job security and benefits.
The strike is having a significant impact on the auto industry. The Big Three have already laid off thousands of workers due to the strike, and production of new vehicles has been halted. The strike is also costing the automakers billions of dollars in lost revenue.
It is unclear how long the strike will last. Both sides have said that they are committed to reaching an agreement, but they remain far apart on some key issues.
Latest update:
On October 24, the UAW announced that it had reached a tentative agreement with Stellantis. The agreement includes a 23% wage increase over four years, an end to the tier wage system, and other improvements to wages, benefits, and job security. The agreement must still be ratified by UAW members, but it is a positive sign that the strike may be nearing an end.
