The Monday announcement brings an end to\u2062 a nearly seven-week-long strike that began on September 15th. This strike followed the expiration of the UAW&#8217;s\u200d previous contract \u200dwith the\u2063 Big Three automakers.<\/p>\n<p>The\u200c UAW had previously reached \u2063a deal with Stellantis and Ford before finalizing the agreement with GM. However, \u2062the tentative agreement must still be approved by local UAW leaders and ratified by a simple \u200dmajority of each automaker&#8217;s union-represented workers. This process is\u200d expected to take several days.<\/p>\n<p>During the strike, nearly 13,000 UAW workers initially went on strike, but that number grew to almost 40,000 over time. This significantly impacted \u2064production \u2063for all companies \u200dinvolved. GM revealed last Tuesday\u2063 that the strike was expected to reduce its annual pretax profit by $800 \u2063million, costing \u200bthe automaker group $200 million per week.<\/p>\n<p>If approved, the new \u200ccontract will last for 4 \u00bd years and includes various benefits for union \u200dmembers. These benefits include an\u2062 11% initial wage increase, a pay bump of 25% over the course of the deal, the reinstatement of cost-of-living adjustments, the ability \u200cfor workers to reach\u2062 top-level wages in three years\u2063 instead of eight, and the protection of workers&#8217; rights to strike over plant closures.<\/p>\n<p>This strike was historic as it marked the first time\u2062 UAW members went on strike simultaneously at all three companies \u2013 GM, \u2063Ford, and\u2064 Stellantis. In previous \u200cstrikes, the union would\u200b strike at one company to force negotiations and then push the other two companies to accept similar \u200cterms.<\/p>\n<p>With the tentative agreement in place, GM employees will now return \u2062to work, mirroring the actions of Ford \u2064and \u2062Stellantis employees after reaching their agreements.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, this resolution brings relief to both the UAW and GM\u200d as they\u200c can now move forward and \u2064focus on their future endeavors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UAW union strike is ending as a tentative agreement with GM has been announced.
