Saline: Auto Industry

Reuters reports that workers at an auto parts plant in Saline will be laid off following a deal recently struck between Ford and the UAW. The automaker plans to transfer Ford workers to Saline as the Jobs Bank is phased out. ”The transferred Ford workers will displace workers at the ACH plant in Saline, Michigan, starting Monday and those displaced will permanently be laid off in April, according a memo posted on the website of UAW local 892. The plant was one of the facilities that was taken back by Ford from Visteon as part of the automaker’s bailout of its former parts subsidiary.” [Source]
