MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – General Motors (NYSE:GM) and a new independent union at the U.S. automaker’s biggest Mexico plant have reached a deal on a new collective contract that includes raises and benefits above inflation, the union said on Wednesday.
The union, SINTTIA, did not provide further details and GM did not immediately reply to a request for comment. The negotiations began in March after SINTTIA won an election at GM’s plant in the central city of Silao in a high-profile test case of a new regional trade deal.
