Chrysler to keep 3rd shift at Windsor plant-union
TORONTO, July 10 (Reuters) - Chrysler has reversed its decision to cancel the third shift at its Windsor, Ontario, minivan plant, the head of the Canadian Auto Workers union said on Friday.
Chrysler, which recently emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the United States, said back in March that it planned to cut the shift as part of an effort to restructure its operations in the face of slumping sales.
The Windsor plant employs about 4,450 hourly workers and makes the Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country minivans, as well as the Volkswagen Routan. (Reporting by John McCrank; editing by Rob Wilson)
