Ford fights unwritten 10 percent hiring pact at Sharonville plant
Ford Motor Co seeks to toss or trim a 4.8 million jury award to Stephen Himmel, former Sharonville transmission plant labor relations supervisor, who sued after being fired for opposing a national UAW hiring policy. He alleges the unwritten 10 percent hiring rule favored union officials’ relatives and felons, while Ford contends the promotion practices were unrelated to Himmel’s case. The plant near Cincinnati employs about 2,200 workers, of whom 1,950 are hourly UAW members.
