Union at Volkswagen in Mexico to Hold New Contract Vote Aug. 31
PUEBLA, Mexico—Workers at Volkswagen’s assembly plant here will be asked to vote again on whether to approve their union’s deal for 9 percent raises after initially rejecting the agreement.
The Independent Union of Automotive Workers (SITIAVW) reached a deal with the company for what would have been the biggest raise in the Mexican automotive industry in recent years, covering some 7,000 people, but the plan failed to pass a worker’s vote needed for approval.
