skilledhands Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Just curious if the postings have started going up yet for skilled trades at any Metro detroit area plants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duanesz Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 No postings around here. They are having a hard time letting people know when they are leaving let alone posting new bids. I predict a mess before its all over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALEX4398 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'm sure if we, who have been off our tools for 4 years or more being forced to multiple plants made to work production for a 6 dollar an hour pay cut, said, "enough already put up some posting" or at least let us in on the decision making process. We would be told, "be thankful you have a job." So no I have seen any postings for a month. Last I saw was production to Chicago and 2 Tool and Die to Woodhaven Forge. We were told at the meeting at the local 600 hundred by IUAW and local leadership that 15 would be needed immediatly at T&D and reskills would be put on within month its been almost 3 months since that meeting.

louie Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Just curious if the postings have started going up yet for skilled trades at any Metro detroit area plants? Trades at DTP are not retiring until June July and August. Most likely they will be posting in the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooltime Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I have only heard of zone 1. With over 950 trades retiring Im certain this will be a long process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wixom22 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Dtp not replacing ones retiring cause the ones left are having work added to them. Ford wants skilled trades to work not just ride around and check out the women! R & E Center 1 Welder 1 working as temp will most likely take job Rouge Site 4 welders 3 working as temp or on line net 1 Welder Livonia 1 Welder Pulled req. had someone with recall rights Rawsonville 1 welder Pulled req ?????

Masterchief Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 postings that come down today Wednesday 4/12/12 are for retiree replacement only. Supposedly all core trades should be back to work by the end of the year. I have been without a permanent home since 2007. Is there really somone out there looking out for those like me? 2 1/2 years as a temp at one plant then temp to another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
