UAW Wins Epochal Ford Pension Plan
DETROIT FP reports the UAW and Ford near finalizing a pension plan covering nearly all Ford workers after one year. The plan grants 1 percent of annual pay per year of service, adds to social security, and includes a 65 retirement age with survivor payments. The package couples the pension with a revised wage structure and holiday benefits, contingent on contract approval and potential future parity with GM and Chrysler plans. The deal hinges on union bargaining clout and future wage adjustments.
