MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Unionized workers at a General Motors pickup plant in the Mexican city of Silao have voted to reject their collective contract, the Labor Ministry said on Thursday.
Of 5,876 people who cast ballots in the Tuesday-Wednesday vote carried out under the rules of the new United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), 3,214 employees voted to reject the bargaining agreement while 2,623 people voted to keep it.
