(Reuters) – Canadian workers union Unifor on Friday said General Motors (NYSE:) was “resisting” a number of important elements of its pattern agreement with Ford Motor (NYSE:).<\/p>\n

The union had chosen the company as its second bargaining target after Ford, to address GM-specific issues in another round of contract talks.<\/p>\n

Earlier last month, Unifor ratified a new three-year contract with Ford that offered wage increases of up to 25% to more than 5,600 workers at its Canadian facilities.<\/p>\n

The major issues of contention include GM\u2019s full-time temporary workers classification, the universal health allowance for retirees and future product investment commitments, the union said.<\/p>\n

The union representing hourly workers in Canada faces an 11:59 p.m. ET deadline on Monday to reach a new deal with GM. Unifor represents about 4,300 workers at GM covered by these talks.<\/p>\n

GM Canada did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.<\/p>\n

Unifor’s talks with the Detroit Three automakers in Canada are separate from the United Auto Workers (UAW) union’s coordinated action in the United States.<\/p>\n

In the United States, UAW held off on additional strikes against Detroit Three auto plants on Friday, citing GM’s unexpected willingness to allow workers at joint-venture battery plants to be covered by union contracts.<\/p>\n

Unifor is yet to reach a deal with Chrysler parent Stellantis (NYSE:).<\/p>\n

The Canadian operations of the Detroit Three are much smaller than their U.S. setups, but the three automakers each have critical factories in Canada. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
