It was the first time in history the union launched strikes against all three companies at the same time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But not all 150,000 members went on strike at once. Instead, the strike started at three plants and has grown over the last three weeks to include a total of five plants and 38 parts distribution centers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UAW President <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/autoworkers-detroit-general-motors-stellantis-ford-e2c78274333bea20856b90126a6b831c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shawn Fain<\/a> says the strikes are escalating because of a lack of progress in negotiations. \u201cWe\u2019ve had good discussions,\u201d says Fain. \u201cThere\u2019s times we think we\u2019re getting somewhere, and then things just stop.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kaiser Permanente<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>From October 4 to October 7, more than 75,000 healthcare workers at Kaiser Permanente held the largest healthcare strike in U.S. history to protest low wages and staffing shortages that were not being adequately addressed in contract negotiations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cKaiser has not been bargaining with us in good faith and so it\u2019s pushing us to come out here and strike,\u201d says <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/kaiser-health-care-workers-strike-b8b40ce8c082c0b8c4f1c0fb7ec38741\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jacquelyn Duley<\/a>, a radiologic technologist at Kaiser Permanente Orange County-Irvine Medical Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And while under federal rules the strike was only approved for three days, the unions that represent the workers haven\u2019t ruled out more worker action. As reported by CNN Markets and Economics reporter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2023\/10\/06\/business\/kaiser-permanente-healthcare-workers-strike\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Samantha Delouya<\/a>, the coalition of unions may issue a 10-day warning that could kick off another round of strikes in a couple weeks if the company fails to negotiate in good faith.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As more unions launch worker actions, organizers can use a tool like <a href=\"https:\/\/uniontrack.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UnionTrack\u00ae ENGAGE\u00ae<\/a> to share real-time updates of these actions and progress in contract negotiations.
