The United Auto Workers (UAW) union has approved a tentative agreement with Ford Motor, which includes $8.1 billion in new plant investments, $5,000 ratification bonuses, 25% compounded wage increases, and improved profit-sharing payments. The agreement will now be presented to UAW-Ford members for voting. The deal also includes benefits such as job security, easier organizing rights at battery and electric vehicle plants, and enhanced retirement benefits.
