Stellantis announced it would temporarily lay off 68 workers at an assembly plant in Ohio as the United Auto Workers strike nears a week.
The company, which owns brands such as Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep, said the layoffs would affect the Toledo Machining Plant in Perrysburg, Ohio, and that it"anticipates similar actions" will have to be taken for 300 employees at two facilities in Indiana. The move comes as the targeted strike by the UAW enters its sixth day with little visible progress.
The layoffs come as the UAW is engaged in a targeted strike of three facilities for three big Detroit automakers: Ford, Stellantis, and General Motors. Ford announced it would temporarily lay off roughly 600 nonstriking employees at its Michigan Assembly Plant last week. The historic strike began last week after negotiations between the UAW and Detroit automakers stalled. The union is seeking changes to workers' contracts, including a 36% pay bump over the next four years.UAW President Shawn Fain said on Monday that if demands are not met by Friday at noon, more workers will go on strike.
"Either the Big Three get down to business and work with us to make progress in negotiations, or more locals will be called on to stand up and go out on strike," Fain said.
