Ohio is bracing for the impact of a potential United Auto Workers strike against the 'Big Three' as the end-of-the-week deadline nears.
CLEVELAND — Talks continue in Detroit between the United Auto Workers and the nation’s big three automakers — Ford, GM and Stellantis — in hopes of averting a potential strike at the end of the week impacting 146,000 U.S. auto workers. Ohio is home to about 18,000 employed by the Big 3 in 2022.
But nearly three decades of plant closings have taken their toll on those numbers. In the latest figures released by the state late last year, GM’s employment numbers have dropped by 93% since 1995 to just over 4,400 workers remaining. Ford has 7,000 employees at four plants in Ohio. Half of them are employed in Lorain and Cuyahoga Counties, with more than 1,700 workers each at both its Cleveland Engine Plant in Brook Park and the Ohio Assembly plant in Avon Lake.
