VIEW UAW expands strikes against GM, Stellantis
  + stars: | 2023-09-22 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
The escalation comes as the labor group and the automakers remain apart on terms of a new contract covering 146,000 workers. DANIEL IVES, ANALYST AT WEDBUSH SECURITIES:"This becomes a full on tidal wave of strikes for GM and Stellantis. "This is like union 101 in terms of divide and conquer and put more pressure on GM and Stellantis. "I think GM and Stellantis are going to fight this. But I am less confident Stellantis can work it out because they are by far the worst of the three with labor relations."

REUTERS/Michael Swensen Acquire Licensing RightsNEW YORK, Sept 22 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Detroit will run out of road before its unions do. In 2019, when a UAW strike closed manufacturing at GM for 40 days, it reduced output by 300,000 vehicles and operating profit by $3.6 billion. The crux of negotiations probably will come down to wages, where Fain said Ford has budged, including the reinstatement of cost-of-living increases. With the UAW prepared to endure, Detroit will be pressured to blink. The union on Sept. 15 initiated targeted walkouts at three plants owned by the three Detroit vehicle manufacturers.
