The Promise and the Limits of the UAW Deals
View Date:2024-12-23 12:00:36
The United Auto Workers secured its biggest victory in decades in deals with the Big 3 car companies after weeks of strikes.
While the union won a lot of concessions for workers: big pay raises, cost of living adjustments tied to inflation and increased retirement contributions, some workers are focused on what the new contracts are missing.
NPR Labor and Workplace Correspondent Andrea Hsu reports on what the historic contracts include and what they don't. Host Ari Shapiro speaks with NPR business reporter Camila Domonoske about how the UAW is looking to build on its gains.
