Ford and Unifor strike tentative deal for three-year labour contract
The deal covers about 5,150 workers and will be presented to members for ratification after talks stretched past a Friday deadline.
- On Saturday, Unifor and Ford Motor Company reached a tentative three-year national labor contract covering 5,150 union members after extending negotiations beyond a Friday deadline.
- Unifor began these negotiations on June 22, selecting Ford as the initial bargaining partner because the automaker demonstrated the most commitment to continuing its Canadian operations.
- The Unifor Ford Master Bargaining Committee unanimously endorsed the tentative deal, with ratification meetings scheduled between July 17 and July 19 for workers across Ontario and Alberta.
- "We look forward to bringing this tentative agreement to our members," said Unifor Ford Master Bargaining Chair John, as the union seeks to set this pattern for General Motors and Stellantis negotiations.
- The broader automotive sector faces instability as 6,000 workers have been laid off across the Big Three; Unifor National President Lana Payne urges federal policy to prioritize domestic manufacturing investments.
