The United Auto Workers has reached a deal with axle supplier Dauch Corp after a 10-day strike against the company at its Three Rivers, Michigan, plant, union President Shawn Fain said on Wednesday.
- Dauch, formerly known as American Axle, supplies axles to General Motors‘ full-size and midsize trucks from the plant.
- Members of UAW Local 2093 will soon vote on the new agreement with the company that includes a top wage rate of $30 per hour by 2030, a more than 36% increase in four years, said Josh Jager, bargaining chairman for Local 2093.
- The strike will continue until the contract is ratified, the UAW said.
- Workers at the Dauch plant in 2008 agreed to accept lower wages. Since then, the top wage has increased by $4 to $22 per hour, Jager said.
- A Dauch spokesperson said in a statement: “We appreciate the efforts of both the UAW and Dauch labor negotiations teams to find common ground.”
