New products, jobs protected, $4.5 billion in investment and new products

Your negotiating team has consistently heard our members demanding more job security because members understand that without product for our plants, our futures are not secure. 

This tentative agreement adds another 2,100 new jobs and protects current jobs.  All of the new jobs will be added during the term of this new contract. These new jobs will be added to communities across America where people have been struggling to recover from our nation’s economic turmoil.

The UAW Chrysler proposed agreement also includes $4.5 billion of investment to produce new models and upgraded vehicles and components by 2015, which will be invested directly into retooling and upgrading plants.  See chart below:
