Quote from the article:
A union official said that more than 300 of those production workers were recalled in January when production resumed on all three models built at the Northland plant. Currently, 341 of the 458 people laid off last year have returned while the remainder stay on a recall list, said Tony Wilson, president of Machinists Local Lodge 176. The Machinists and Steelworkers unions represent about 700 production employees at the plant. Wilson said it was uncertain whether the 117 employees who remain on layoff will return soon. |
