WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. and Mexico on Friday announced an agreement to address a U.S. labor trade complaint at the VU Manufacturing auto parts plant in northern Mexico that requires the firm to allow free association rights for the factory’s workers.
The U.S. Department of Labor said in a statement the agreement “includes a commitment by VU to create a climate that promotes respect for workers’ choice of union representation and is free of interference in union activities to the detriment of the most representative union.”
