UAW workers strike outside Lansing Regional Stamping in Delta Township, Michigan on September 29, 2023.PARMA, Ohio -- General Motors has laid off 130 union workers at the Parma Metal Center, UAW Local 1005 President Dan Schwartz said.
Thirty-four union workers at the Marion Metal Center also have been laid off, according to a statement from General Motors. The“The UAW leadership’s decision to call a strike at GM Wentzville Assembly, and now GM Lansing Delta Township Assembly, continues to have negative ripple effects,” the GM statement says.
Beginning Monday, a portion of the two metal centers will have no work available, and the affected team members are not expected to return until the strike has been resolved, the statement says. “Since we are working under an expired labor agreement, there are no provisions for company-provided SUB-pay in this circumstance,” the statement further says. “We have said repeatedly that nobody wins in a strike, and this is yet another demonstration of that fact. We will continue to bargain in good faith with the union to reach an agreement as quickly as possible.”
