Talks between GM and the United Auto Workers continue, but the union appears to be preparing for a longer walkout with a strike pay increase
The United Auto Workers is increasing its weekly payout to General Motors Co. workers on strike, a sign the union is preparing to extend a nearly monthlong walkout that has halted work at the company’s U.S. factories.
The UAW said Saturday more than 46,000 hourly workers on the picket line will see weekly strike pay increase to $275 from $250 starting Sunday. The union also said it would lift a restriction on members seeking part-time work, so now they can get a temporary job and still receive full strike pay.
