Ford-UAW Deal Close
November 02, 2007

Detroit media reporting Ford and the United Auto Workers union could announce a contract settlement as early as Friday.

Negotiators from the two sides remained at the bargaining table Friday morning after an all-night session, suggesting they are in the final phases of the talks.

The critical issues is job security: the union appears ready to give Ford more cost cuts in exchange for fewer plant closings and specific future product programs for plants.
