A small spot of good news for American autoworkers
Ford has called back 300 autoworkers to build the 2011 Ford Explorer at the Torrence Avenue plant, and also at the Chicago Heights stamping facility, according to the Sun-Times.
Matt Kolanowski, UAW bargaining unit chairman at the company's stamping plant, said Ford agreed to build the Explorer at the plant as part of a deal this month in which workers agreed to concessions.
"It's a great thing," he said. "It will bring back workers."
There's the potential that even more jobs could result, he said.
