Strike Ends At Racine CNH Plant

Tuesday, January 24th, 2023 -- 2:00 PM

(Ted Ehlen, WRN) Workers on strike since last May at CNH Industrial in Racine approve a new contract Saturday.

The United Auto Workers announce the approval of the deal with the ag equipment and heavy equipment maker two weeks after turning down a previous offer that proposed raises of 28- to 38-percent over four years.

The company’s workers stayed on the picket lines, saying that pay increases offered by their employer would be eaten up by inflation and increasing health insurance costs. Back in early May, CNH employees turned down an 18.5% pay increase for those same reasons.
