Unifor local leadership unanimously endorse tentative agreement with Ford

Union leadership across all Ford Motor Company locals in both trades and production delivered a unanimous endorsement of the tentative agreement reached between Unifor and the company last week.

Per the agreement, Ford will invest $1.95 billion in it’s Oakville and Windsor plants. The union was hoping that electric vehicles would be in the future of their plants, and this agreement ensures that.

“This resounding endorsement by our leadership on the shop floor across all of Ford Motor Company facilities is a testament to the strength of the deal our Bargaining Committee negotiated,” said Jerry Dias, Unifor National President. “By delivering a unanimous decision, our local leadership have made their position clear: this tentative agreement with Ford delivers what our members need now and in the future.”

Ratification meetings are being held today for members to consider the tentative agreement’s details. The vote will be made available tomorrow.
