The Detroit News reports those eligible will receive their checks February 26. The agreements, which goes unchanged with the latest four-year UAW contract, allots $1 for every million dollars made in North American profit.
“UAW members will go home to their families today knowing that their hard work and innovative team work have paid off,” GM-UAW vice president Cindy Estrada said in a statement. “Through collective bargaining those UAW members eligible will receive up to $11,000 in GM profit sharing. Together, UAW members are sharing in the quality products and record sales of GM cars and trucks.”
