The labour is asking for a Wage Increase of about 36 , the management has offered amount 20 , so theres still a big gap between the two sides. The Labour Unions there have also thrown out some almost fantastical once in terms of a return to a normal pension system, and even a four day workweek. So these are kind of real outliers here in the Global Industry and would take the unionis . American workers into uncharted territories. find into uncharted territories. And if ou into uncharted territories. And if you bring into uncharted territories. And if you bring in into uncharted territories. And if you bring in the into uncharted territories. And if you bring in the asian perspective, what are things that have been done differently here, how would we draw those comparisons for the strike to be resolved . For background, what ou be resolved . For background, what you are be resolved . For background, what you are seeing be resolved . For background, what you are seeing in be resolved . For background, what you are seeing in the be resolved . For background, what you are seeing in the us| what you are seeing in the us is an unprecedented strike against all three major American Auto makers at the same time. Meanwhile injapan, you would rarely ever see a strike, i dont think in my time working here since the early to thousands have we ever seen a strike at any of the car makers here. By contrast, you see more of a collegial or cooperative approach to the annual wage negotiations, so theres a more give and take in both the labour and management see their fate is both the labour and management see theirfate is more intertwined, as opposed to confrontational. fire intertwined, as opposed to confrontational. Intertwined, as opposed to confrontational. Are there any lessons i confrontational. Are there any lessons i can confrontational. Are there any lessons i can be confrontational. Are there any lessons i can be learned confrontational. Are there any lessons i can be learned and l lessons i can be learned and what are the aspects that are working well for instance, the japanese Auto Industry . For the Ja Anese JapaneseAuto Industry . For the japanese Auto JapaneseAuto Industry . For the japanese Auto Industry, japanese Auto Industry . For the japanese Auto Industry, they. Japanese Auto Industry, they are also facing some of the same pressures. What we saw this year for example was a reaction to spiralling inflation. There was High Pressure on the auto makers to give some of their biggest raises decades toyota gave its biggest raise in two decades to its workers, honda gave its biggest raise in three decades to its workers. And those were requests put forward by the workers accepted on front by the management. There was no major conflict or confrontation about that. That said, honda for example accepted a 5 increase for what is likely to be a 5 increase in pay, contrasting with what vw is asking for in the us which is 36 . So you can see how the expectations are little more modest injapan. There are signs that Labour Disputes between Auto Industry workers and car makers are spreading beyond us borders. In a few hours, ford motor could be facing a strike in canada. Thats when a contract between ford and a Union Representing 5,600 Canadian Auto workers is set to expire. Unifor has warned that the likelihood of a strike is increasing with every passing hour. The car maker could face a strike in canada if no they are asking for better pay and an improved pension system.
