Who is responsible for negotiating the contracts on the union’s behalf?
Our union’s bargaining committee structure is multilayered, involving various participants across multiple sub-committees, all working collaboratively to reach a tentative settlement.
National President Lana Payne will serve as the lead and official spokesperson. Each of the Ford, GM and Stellantis Master Bargaining Committees are led by their respective elected Committee Chairperson.
The union negotiating team includes local union and workplace representatives, elected by the membership, and is also supported by Unifor staff.
More information on the union’s bargaining structure will be provided in a future communique to members.
