Talks between unionized workers and the Big Three auto makers are progressing slowly ahead of the current four-year contract’s Sept. 14 expiration, in contrast with recent labor successes.
The talks have been tense, and started off with UAW President Shawn Fain breaking the tradition of shaking hands with auto companies’ executives at the start of contract talks in mid-July and instead the union instituted the “members handshake.” Fain, widely described as a firebrand, also famously chucked in the trash a Stellantis offer.
Don’t miss: How much would a strike cost the Big Three automakers? Wall Street thinks it has an answer. Tesla Inc. TSLA, +1.27% has for years fended off efforts to unionize its plants, and earlier this year the National Labor Relations Board ordered the electric-vehicle maker to reinstate an employee fired in connection with labor organizing and said Chief Executive Elon Musk must remove a three-year-old tweet urging against unionizing.
