UAW GM Report
 

68 Holidays Over Four Years

A total of 68 holidays will be provided to UAW GM workers over the four-year term of the proposed agreement. The tentative agreement again retains the two national Election Days negotiated in the previous agreement.

Veterans Day will be observed on Friday the first two years of this agreement and on Monday in the third and fourth years.

The tentative agreement also maintains the Monday after Easter, the Monday commemorating the birthday of the late Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and the paid Christmas through New Year’s shutdowns.

The schedule of paid holidays negotiated for the term of the proposed agreement is:
