Jeep maker Stellantis has reached a tentative contract agreement with the United Auto Workers union that follows a template set earlier this week by Ford.
UAW President Shawn Fain confirmed the agreement in a video appearance Saturday evening and said that 43,000 members at the company still have to vote on it.
Fain said Stellantis had proposed cutting 5,000 U.S. jobs, but the union's strike changed that to adding 5,000 jobs by the end of the contract. Like the Ford agreement, it will take just three years for new workers to get to the top of the assembly pay scale, the union said. "Anybody who knows anything about negotiations, you always start out much higher than you think is realistic to get," he said.
"Through the grapevine, I hear it's pretty good and that's really a blessing for all of us, all the UAW workers," said McKinley, who has spent nine years with Stellantis and works at the automaker's Sterling Heights assembly plant.
