Warren Truck to lose shift as Ram 1500 Classic production ends; UAW's Fain blasts cuts

As many as 2,450 autoworkers at Stellantis NV's Warren Truck Assembly Plant could be laid off indefinitely in early October as the plant's general assembly moves to a one-shift operation from two with the end of production of the Ram 1500 Classic pickup, the automaker said Friday.

The company said that "indefinitely laid-off represented seniority employees will receive 52 weeks of supplemental unemployment benefits (paid by the company) and 52 weeks of transition assistance. This would be in addition to any state unemployment benefits an employee might be eligible to receive. They will also receive two years of health care coverage."
