From the Detroit Free Press (freep.com)
Nearly five weeks into the UAW strike at American Axle & Manufacturing Inc., the company is hiring workers at four plants in New York and Michigan that are subject to the work stoppage, to replace striking workers and for future positions at the auto supplier.
In an ad found on The Oakland Press’ Web site, the company said it seeks candidates for production and skilled trade positions.
After noting the strike, the ad reads: “Employment offered to applicants responding to this advertisement will be to fill anticipated attrition replacement openings after negotiations or in place of employees involved in this strike.”
The ad does not list compensation rates for the positions or a start date, but notes that the company seeks to fill full-time positions for three shifts and that those hired would receive benefits after “a certain period of regular employment.”
