UAW Serves Strike Notice at Ford’s River Rouge – Tool & Die Unit Over Local Agreement Issues Including Job Security, Wage Parity and Work Rules

UAW Wheel logo

Dearborn, MI – The Tool & Die Unit at Ford’s River Rouge Complex will strike on Thursday, September 26 if local contract issues are not resolved.

After Ford Motor Company has failed to reach a local agreement with the UAW Local 600, Tool & Die Unit at the Rouge Complex more than a year past the contract deadline, UAW Vice President Chuck Browning has received authorization from UAW President Shawn Fain to set a strike deadline for 11:59 p.m., Wednesday, Sept 25.

The core issues in the Tool & Die Unit’s local negotiations are job security, wage parity for Skilled Trades, as well as work rules.

In addition to the UAW’s national contracts, UAW members negotiate local agreements around plant-specific issues at each facility.
