US workers at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) have approved a new collective bargaining contract negotiated by United Auto Workers (UAW) union, the carmaker announced Thursday. The contract represents "an investment in our American workforce and recognizes the workers' contribution to the company's growth over the past six years," the FCA statement said.
The deal was approved by 77% of employees and will be the basis for contract talks with Ford and General Motors, the UAW said. The UAW represents 40,000 FCA employees at 16 plants.
