Detroit’s Big Three Automakers to Let Workers Stop Wearing Masks
DETROIT—Detroit’s Big Three automakers will allow autoworkers to stop wearing masks at workplaces where U.S. health officials have said it is safe to do so.
General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co., Stellantis NV and the United Auto Workers union said in a joint statement March 4 that they would adopt new guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) allowing workers at U.S. facilities to not wear masks regardless of COVID-19 vaccination status, if those facilities are not in high-risk counties.
