Looks to be very slightly better than the GM deal. I hope this wins ratification, I'm not convinced it will be an easy sale to the rank and file...time will tell.
Some of the terms...
"The agreement raises the hourly wage for workers hired after 2007 to $19.28 by the end of the contract. Those workers currently make about $15.50 an hour."
"Ford will also offer buyouts of $50,000 to production workers and $100,000 to skilled-trades workers, in an attempt to open jobs for more entry-level employees."
FLAT ROCK to get the FUSION ASSEMBLY...
"Under the agreement, Ford’s plant in Flat Rock will build the Ford Fusion and continue to build the Ford Mustang, one of the people said. That factory will receive a $500 million investment, providing some job security for its 1,600 hourly workers."
Kansas City and Avon Lake get new commitments as well...
"Ford also will invest $1 billion at a Kansas City assembly plant, which will build the Transit, Ford's full-size European van. A $128 million investment will be made in Avon Lake, Ohio, to build medium-duty trucks and motor-home chassis."
