Canada's Unifor union, GM reach tentative agreements
GM•Tentative agreements reached with Unifor members in Ontario
Canadian union Unifor said on Saturday it reached tentative agreements with General Motors on behalf of 4,600 members in Ontario.
The agreements cover members of the Oshawa Assembly Plant, CAMI Assembly Plant in Ingersoll, and worksites in St. Catharines and Woodstock, Unifor said.
Unifor National President Lana Payne said the agreements deliver strong income and benefit gains.
Talks between Unifor and General Motors began earlier this month, following the ratification of a deal with Ford that included wage gains of 3% in each year of the three-year contract.
The union said ratification meetings will take place on August 29 and 30.
