Johnson Controls said today that it had reached a settlement with the United Auto Workers on issues that had resulted in strikes, production stoppages or pickets at four automotive component plants in Shreveport, Louisiana; Northwood, Ohio; Earth City, Missouri and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on June 11.
Subsequently, UAW Region 5 Director Jim Wells confirmed that a tentative agreement had been reached and urged workers to return to work immediately today on their regular shift so that “production could resume as soon as possible”.
