Workers at Mack Trucks have gone on strike Monday after rejecting a proposed contract between the company and the United Auto Workers union. The union released a letter on X, formerly known as Twitter, that said 73% of UAW members voted against the contract and would walk off the job at 7 a.m. ET. About 4,000 UAW members work at Mack Trucks in three states.
Mack Trucks is owned by Volvo, so the new strike is separate from the UAW dispute with Detroit's Big Three. Since Sept. 15, about 25,000 workers have walked off the job in an escalating series of strikes against Ford, General Motors and Stellantis, which makes cars under brands such as Jeep, Dodge and Chrysler. In its statement, Mack Trucks pointed to the UAW's classification of the proposal as 'a record contract for the heavy truck industry.
