On page 10 under "Attrition Replacement Obligations to be Fulfilled" in the first paragraph:

 

All opening hiring obligations resulting

from the 1999 and 2003 Collective Bargaining

Agreements will be fulfilled

through the hiring of full time and temporary

part time employees and the conversion

of Visteon hourly employees at former

Ford locations to Ford full time hourly

employment status,the return of the Sterling

and Rawsonville plants to Ford,and

two separate flowback actions that provided

eligible Ford employees at Visteon/

ACH locations opportunities to return to

Ford locations during the 2003 Agreement.

 

Are they talking about the previous action a few years ago when all of the Visteon employees were given Ford employee status or are they saying that the current Visteon (temp) employees will be made Ford employees?

 

I'm not trying to bitch about it or sound like I wouldn't want them to be Ford employees, but many of those people are rehires who took buyouts. Aren't they defeating the purpose?????

 

More power to those people if that happens but I still don't have $100K in my bank account........... What about us who didn't take a buyout and come back?!?!?!

Yes. There is no provision in this contract for hiring the TFT's to full time status.(At least not in the highlights)

 

Ford already said they need 8,000 to 12,000 more buyouts. Why would they hire the temp workers.

Exactly my point. But it reads kinda funny.......

Ford Hired all Visteon employees when they took back the plants and made a new entity called ACH. Anyone hired INTO ACH is an ACH employee Not Visteon, NOT Ford, but an ACH employee. Those who were rehired, IF they took a retirement, they signed a paper that states they can never again hire INTO Ford. They are ACH employees covered under an ACH/UAW contract. People may like to call them Temps, But they are ACH employees in those plants.

 

One of the reasons there has not been the flowback, like Chuck Browning said last OCT., is that Ford has been hiring part-time employees in their assembly plants and thus preventing the Ford employees in the ACH plants from flowing back.

 

So people in the Ford Assembly plants have a misconception of what has been happening in the Old Visteon / New ACH plants.

What happens to the ACH ee's with this new contract? Besides getting to vote on it.

It was my understanding that, even though the new folks are working for ACH, they were classified as Visteon temporary employees.

"Nationwide buyout packages will be offered based on mutual agreement by the parties".

 

Does this mean they will be selective to specific classifications, production, trades ????? Will it be directed or decided by Ford and the International or by local plants and local unions.

 

any serious insite on this would be nice.

 

Thanks
