(Reuters) – Canadian organized labor Unifor prolonged its due date for agreement settlements with General Motors on Tuesday, avoiding a strike at the plant in Ingersoll, Ontario that makes electrical automobiles and batteries.
The due date for getting to an offer got on Tuesday and the Unifor Local 88 had actually formerly claimed that 97% of its more-than-1,300 participants remained in favour of quiting working at the CAMI plant if an offer was not gotten to.
The union did not provide a brand-new due date and decreased to share additional details than what it claimed in its declaration.
“Our bargaining committee continues to make progress at the bargaining table and talks will continue so long as that remains the case,” Unifor National President Lana Payne claimed in the declaration.
GM, that makes the BrightDrop industrial vans and Ultium battery components at the plant, did not promptly reply to an ask for remark.
Unifor and GM began agreement settlements recently.
