UAW Mack Truck Workers Unhappy with Tentative Deal Falling Short of Detroit Automaker Raises

UAW Mack Truck workers expected similar raises to Detroit automakers but tentative deal falls short.

Tentative deal includes 19% wage increase over 5 years but no elimination of wage tiers.

No reinstatement of pensions, cost-of-living adjustments, or shorter work weeks.

UAW president set a higher standard for Detroit automakers of 40% raises and inflation protection.

Some Mack Truck workers plan to vote against the tentative deal for not meeting expectations.
