(Reuters) -The United Auto Workers (UAW) union on Wednesday said members at Volvo Group-owned Mack Trucks have voted to ratify their new contract with significant local improvements.
"After 39 days on strike, UAW members at Mack Trucks have voted by 93% to ratify their new contract with significant local improvements," the union said in a post on messaging platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
The union workers went on strike early last month, after overwhelmingly rejecting a proposed five-year contract deal, which had included a 19% pay hike.
Mack Trucks, which was bought by Volvo in 2000, is one of North America's largest makers of medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks.
