Contract negotiations between a major automotive union and a global vehicle manufacturer have officially begun, with the union setting a tight internal deadline for reaching an agreement. Talks aim to finalize a new collective bargaining deal before the current contract expires later this month. The union has emphasized the urgency of securing terms that protect workers’ interests, though no details on key demands have been disclosed. With time running short, both sides face pressure to resolve outstanding issues before the deadline.
Unifor and Stellantis start contract talks on Sept. 1. The union has set Sept. 11 as the internal deadline for a deal. The contract expires Sept. 20.
