隨著通用汽車“低頭”,規模史無前例的美國車企三巨頭工人罷工落下帷幕。
當地時間10月30日,美國汽車工人聯合會(UAW)和通用汽車達成臨時合同協議,包括在未來四年合同期限內給員工提供25%的加薪,取消多個工資等級,將Ultium Cells和GM Subsystems LLC兩個電池工廠的員工納入臨時協議中。通用汽車的員工在協議批准期間將重返工作崗位。
這一臨時協議的達成,結束了這場長達6周的汽車工人罷工。外媒稱,對美國汽車工人聯合會來說,這場針對底特律三大汽車生產商的罷工行動可以用一次勝利來形容。
美國總統拜登在最新的演講中表示,福特、通用汽車和Stellantis與美國汽車工人聯合會(UAW)達成了歷史性的協議;這些協議確保三大汽車巨頭仍能夠在質量和創新方面處於領先地位;今天的歷史性協議是經濟領域的又一大好訊息。
當地時間9月15日凌晨,UAW正式對美國汽車三巨頭——通用、福特、標緻雪鐵龍母公司Stellantis發起罷工。起因是美國汽車工人與這三家汽車製造商的合同已於9月14號到期,工會要求汽車公司提高薪資、養老金、醫療、失業等保障以應對美國通脹高企帶來的生活成本危機,每週工作四天等,但雙方未能在合同到期前達成一致。

-Before I begin, I want to explain why I was delayed a few minutes.
I have just spoken with President Fain of the United Auto Workers, and let me say a few words about the UAW and the Big Three automakers — Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis.
They have reached an historic agreement and a hard-fought agreement that was really battled for a while, but it was all done in good faith.
And these record agreements reward autoworkers who gave up much to keep the industry working and going during the financial crisis more than a decade ago.
These agreements ensure the iconic Big Three can still lead the world in quality and innovation.
Due to the commitment and solidarity of the UAW workers willing to exercise their right, their right to collectively bargain, they've won a record contract with over a 30% increase in wages, greater retirement security, and more paid leave, and a commitment by the big Three to create more full-time middle class jobs and invest tens of billions more dollars in plants and factories building automobiles' future here in America.
I applaud the UAW and the leaders of the automobile companies for agreeing that all the workers on strike and all those who were walking the picket lines on behalf of the UAW, brothers and sisters, can go back to work immediately, even before the vote is taken.
Ultimately, the final word on this contract will be for the UAW memberships themselves in the days and coming weeks as they vote.
But here's what I know and what I shared with the United Auto Workers that I met in the picket line.
I've always believed that the middle class built America and that unions built the middle class.
And that's especially the case for United Auto Workers, who built the iconic automobile industry.
For too long, in my view, the economy hasn't worked for working people and for middle class folks, because when they do well, by the way, everybody does well.
That's why I came to office determined to build an economy, to build from the middle out and the bottom up instead of the top down.
It's a critical piece of worker power, and it's showing how collective bargaining works by providing workers a seat at the table to honor their contributions to their employer's success by securing pay and benefits they can raise a family on and retire with dignity and respect.
It's showing how collective bargaining works for companies, how a strong relationship between workers and management can mean record profits leading to record contracts.
We're also seeing across the board, for the UAW workers, we're seeing this everywhere — rail workers, port workers, teamsters, writers, health workers, and workers on other industries organizing by collective bargaining.
Folks, look, today's historic agreement is yet another piece of good economic news showing something I've always believed.
Worker power.
Worker power is critical to building an economy from the middle out and the bottom up, and so is economic growth.

可能是本次UAW罷工的大贏家?
