A major labor dispute is brewing as Unifor’s three-year contract with Stellantis officially expired last month, though workers have not yet reached the legal threshold for a strike. The union and automaker remain in negotiations, leaving the possibility of industrial action hanging over production as tensions escalate. With no immediate strike authorized, both sides are locked in discussions over terms, but the clock is ticking on a potential shutdown. The outcome could disrupt supply chains and workforce stability if talks stall further.
A strike is looming but not imminent. Unifor’s three-year contract with Stellantis expired Sept. 20 but members are not yet in a legal strike position.
