Unifor, the Canadian labor union representing over 8,200 workers, announced a tentative agreement with Stellantis on Monday, bringing an end to a short-lived strike at the automaker's facilities.
The strike had commenced after the two parties failed to reach a deal by a Sunday deadline, but continued negotiations led to a resolution.
Unifor's National President, Lana Payne, Stellantis Master Bargaining Chairperson James Stewart, and Stellantis Master Bargaining Acting Vice-Chairperson Vito Beato released a joint statement expressing their satisfaction with the tentative agreement.
Unifor has already reached earlier agreements with Ford Motor Co. and General Motors.
While the strike was relatively brief, Unifor emphasized its significance, describing it as an "important act of solidarity and determination."
The agreement, once ratified, would benefit the 8,000 represented employees and contribute to the long-term health of Stellantis's Canadian operations.
Specific details of the agreement with Stellantis were not immediately disclosed.
Unifor had previously indicated its interest in obtaining information from Stellantis about its electric vehicle plans for its Canadian plants, a reflection of the industry's shift toward electrification and sustainability.
In the US, Stellantis had faced escalating strikes by United Auto Workers (UAW) members over the past six weeks, but a tentative agreement was reached between the company and the union on Saturday.
