The union reached a tentative agreement for its local contract with General Motors on Friday. The contract covers about 3,000 GM Lordstown Assembly Plant Workers who build the Chevrolet Cruze.

“This was a long and hard-fought negotiation that results in significant gains in local demands and no concessions,” a Local 1112 informational flyer states.

UAW Local 1714’s negotiations are on-going, President Robert Morales said on Monday. Negotiations for this contract, which covers fabrication plant workers at Lordstown, are moving in the right direction, Morales said.
