Dauch - United Auto Workers at Three Rivers facility implement work stoppage effective June 1, 2026

On June 1, 2026, United Auto Workers (UAW) Local 2093 members at Dauch Corporation’s Three Rivers, Michigan facility implemented a work stoppage following failed contract negotiations with the company. The strike, which began at 12:01 a.m., affects approximately 975 hourly workers who had previously authorized strike action by a 98% margin. Union representatives highlighted that wages at the facility have not kept pace with inflation since the 2008 financial crisis, when some workers saw their pay cut in half. UAW Local 2093 is seeking to raise top wages from $22 to $30 per hour and to improve healthcare and retirement benefits. Dauch Corporation, a major supplier to General Motors, has not publicly commented on the strike. The work stoppage could disrupt parts supply chains, as the Three Rivers plant is a key manufacturing site for the company. Union leaders emphasized that the strike reflects long-standing concerns over compensation and working conditions, with workers prepared for an extended labor action.
