Honda Motor said Friday it was implementing an 11% pay hike for production workers at its U.S. facilities from January, days after the United Auto Workers union and the Detroit Three automakers agreed to record contracts. The company also said it would cut the time it takes for a worker to get to the top wage tier to three years from six, confirming an earlier Wall Street Journal report.
Non-unionized automakers such as Honda have come under pressure to improve pay and benefits following record contracts the UAW won at the Detroit Three automakers. Honda, which began manufacturing in America in 1979, currently has 12 plants in the country which produce five million products annually.General Motors, Ford Motor and Chrysler-parent Stellantis have all agreed to hike employee base wages by 25% and restore cost of living allowances in deals with the UAW.
Honda had told Reuters it was evaluating the recent UAW deals with the Detroit Three automakers and would remain competitive.
