Union negotiators and representatives of General Motors, Ford and Stellantis were set to resume talks on Monday, seeking to end one of the most ambitious U.S. industrial labor actions in decades that has seen the union strike all three automakers simultaneously for the first time. About 12,700 UAW workers are on strike as part of a coordinated labor action targeting three U.S. assembly plants - one at each of the Detroit Three automakers after the prior four-year labor agreements expired. Analysts and industry executives question how long it will be before the UAW strikes at additional plants in a move to raise pressure on the companies.
- The United Auto Workers strike against the Detroit Three automakers enters its fourth day on Monday as both sides try to hammer out deals to avoid costly disruptions to more plants.
The coordinated strike comes at a time when Americans' approval of labor unions is at its highest point in decades even as membership in unions remains largely unchanged. UAW President Shawn Fain said Sunday that progress in the talks has been slow, and that the union was prepared to do what was necessary when asked whether the union would extend the strike at the three automakers to additional plants this week.
Analysts expect plants that build more profitable pickup trucks like Ford's F-150, GM's Chevy Silverado and Stellantis's Ram to be the next strike targets if the walkout continues.
