UAW urges GM postwar employment security fund plan
The United Auto Workers proposed a 150 million postwar employment security fund to be set up by General Motors. It would be jointly administered by the union and the company to cushion workers during GM’s shift from war to peace production. The UAW also seeks a national wage agreement for autos and equal pay for equal work. The hearing follows a WLB panel’s rejection of a general wage increase for about 300,000 GM employees.
