GM Reaches Tentative Deal with UAW, Bloomberg Says
Written by Ethan Bernard
October 30, 2023
General Motors has reached a tentative labor agreement with the United Auto Workers (UAW) union, according to an article in Bloomberg.
The terms of the agreement are broadly similar to earlier tentative deals reached recently with Ford and Stellantis, the article said.
If the new pacts are ratified by UAW members at all “Big Three” Detroit-area automakers, this would end the “stand-up strike” against the automakers that started on Sept. 15.
A spokesman for GM declined to comment for this article, and a spokesman for UAW did not return comment by time of publication.
This is a developing story. Check back later for updates.
