USWA contract at Asheboro

Officials at Goodyear’s wire plant in Asheboro (North Carolina/USA) reported Tuesday that an arbitrator has completed his confidential review of union authorisation cards from employees at the facility. Based on the review, which followed a 90-day union campaign at the Asheboro manufacturer, the arbitrator determined that a simple majority was achieved. Thus, the USWA is recognised as the exclusive representative of the Asheboro bargaining unit employees, as defined previously by the union and the company.
