It's business as usual in Parma at General Motors on Saturday night. On Sunday, employees will work at the plant again. Monday, too, unless the 900 employees are called on to join the picket line.
“They would put us in what they call the queue; we’ll get some directive from the international staff saying that your local is in the queue and get ready because you could get a phone call at any time to take action," said Dan Schwartz, UAW Local 1005 President.
At the negotiating table in Detroit, those companies said an expensive labor agreement could raise car prices above their non-union foreign competitors. Employees at GM in Parma are keeping a close eye on negotiations over the weekend,"I have seen that they laid off 600 of our members from Ford, and you know, all that is, a ploy from management to try to get us to accept something that is absolutely ridiculous," said Schwartz.
