GM To Recall 900 Workers To Mich. Plant
Posted by doris in America, Auto, GMC, Recall, employment(AP) A bright spot has surfaced in a sea of negative auto sales statistics for General Motors Corp.The company said Friday it will recall 900 workers and restore the second shift at a factory near Lansing, Mich., because of increased sales of its Buick Enclave, Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia large crossover vehicles.
Spokeswoman Sherrie Childers Arb said the laid-off workers will come back to the plant in Delta Township starting Aug. 24, with the second shift continuing indefinitely.
“It’s an uptick in market demand,” she said.
The company also says it has canceled plans to shut down the Spring Hill, Tenn., plant for an additional week in August because of increased demand for the Chevrolet Traverse crossover.
All the large crossovers seat eight and are built on car underpinnings so they are lighter and more efficient than sport utility vehicles.
