TORONTO — Unifor is set to begin negotiations with Stellantis after union members at General Motors voted 80.5 per cent in favour of a tentative deal over the weekend.
"In our membership meeting, members weren't happy with the pattern agreement that was in place," he said.Cassidy declined to name specific areas that he'll be looking to make inroads, and also noted the important gains made in the contracts already agreed to at the other two automakers.
The GM vote was also helped by a significant portion of the 4,300 workers being recent hires, who will especially benefit from the higher wage floor and path to seniority, he said. Looking ahead, he expects it will be more challenging to get Stellantis, with more than 8,200 workers in Canada, to agree to the pattern of bargaining.
