Return To Bias-Ply Racing Tyres At Goodyear

Goodyear is planning to return bias ply race tyre manufacture to Akron after moving the work to South America five years ago. This will see the employment of 65 new workers (the move away cost 115 jobs). The good news for American employees is tainted by the news that the deal involves an agreement by the Unions to allow contracting out of some housekeeping services to lower paid workers.
