Hyundai joins Honda and Toyota in raising wages after auto union wins gains in deals with Detroit 3
- Hyundai has announced plans to raise factory worker pay by 25% by 2028, aligning with the wage increase secured by the UAW. This move follows similar raises by Toyota and Honda in an effort to hinder the UAW's strategy of unionizing foreign automakers and Tesla factories.
- Toyota and Honda are also accelerating the time it takes for starting employees to reach the top pay rate, matching or coming close to the new UAW contracts. The ongoing voting by 146,000 UAW members will grant them 25% wage increases over four years and eight months, along with cost-of-living adjustments.
- Despite the raise, experts believe the new UAW contract is unlikely to incentivize nonunion workers to join, given the locations of the plants and the historical suspicion of unions in those areas.
