1,000 Workers at Second Ultium Plant in Tennessee Join UAW
Sep 4, 2024, 03:27 PM
A significant labor milestone has been achieved in the electric vehicle industry as 1,000 battery workers at Ultium Cells in Spring Hill, Tennessee, voted to join the United Auto Workers (UAW). This makes the Spring Hill plant the second Ultium facility in the United States to unionize, following the Lordstown, Ohio plant in 2022. The move comes as a result of an agreement between General Motors and LG Energy Solution, who jointly operate the Ultium Cells facilities, to recognize the union. These Ultium Cells workers are essential to the EV industry. This development underscores the growing influence of unions in the EV sector, with implications for the industry's future workforce dynamics.
