GM Appeals To Workers In Wage Dispute
General Motors issued a letter to about 330,000 hourly workers urging acceptance of the company’s wage proposal, while United Auto Workers leaders criticized the offer. The company estimates union demands could raise wages and fringe benefits by about 25 to 40 dollars per week, depending on terms, with Curtice pressing for prompt agreement amid ongoing contract talks.
