Toyota proves union-resistant By Brett Clanton, The Detroit News
General Motors Corp., Ford Motor Co. and DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler Group, fighting to stay competitive, have been looking for ways to cut soaring health care and pension costs.
Pro-union forces in Georgetown warn that the fortunes of the foreign automakers could turn overnight, leaving workers vulnerable to pay cuts or layoffs.
The arguments have yet to gain traction with most Toyota workers.
National UAW representatives abandoned their headquarters in a Georgetown hotel last month after only 37 percent of workers signed cards supporting UAW representation during a recruiting drive that began in November.------------------------------------------- posted 7:02 AM :: reference link ::
