Nearly 1,000 employees represented by the United Auto Workers Local 2093 will vote on a contract proposal by Dauch Corp., formerly known as American Axle & Manufacturing, on Sunday that could end a workers strike at the General Motors supplier’s facility in Three Rivers, Michigan.
Union workers voted to authorize a strike in May and walked off the job when the contract expired June 1.
The Three Rivers facility is Dauch’s largest U.S. driveline facility, Chris May, executive VP and CFO, said during a June 3 panel at the UBS Auto and Auto Tech conference. Dauch did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the tentative deal.
UAW Local 2093’s bargaining committee was able to secure Axle workers’ demand of $30 per hour by 2030 — a more than 36% increase in wages currently topped at $22 an hour over the past five years, according to the press release.
