(Bloomberg) – Chrysler Group LLC employees represented by the Canadian Auto Workers ratified a four-year contract that follows union agreements with Ford Motor Co. and General Motors Co. in reducing costs for new workers while maintaining current production levels in Canada.
The vote was 90% in favor, the Toronto-based union said Sunday in an e-mailed statement. The agreement covers about 8,000 production workers in Ontario, including vehicle- assembly plants in Brampton, near Toronto, and Windsor, outside of Detroit. The Auburn Hills, Mich.-based company builds its Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country minivans in Windsor, the fourth- and fifth-best selling models in the company’s lineup last year.
