GM in Oshawa laying off 1,000
The impact of the continuing strike at American Axle and Manufacturing Holdings Inc. in the United States will soon hit another General Motors plant in Oshawa.
General Motors of Canada Ltd. confirmed yesterday that temporary layoff notices have been sent to about 1,000 workers on the third shift at the Oshawa car complex, effective Monday.
Stew Low, GM`s director of communications, said the company is reducing car output because of a shortage of parts from American Axle, where a strike by 3,600 workers has closed five U.S. operations since late February.
