GM reverses decision, will pay striking union workers' healthcare coverage
Today, General Motors announced that it would reverse a decision regarding who would face the burden of paying for employee healthcare during the strike. Previously, GM was allowing this responsibility to shift to the union- however, the firm has now decided to continue paying for healthcare to ensure employees have benefits. When GM had decided to stop coverage, the public and political figures rallied behind the striking workers and criticized the firm for not treating its employees fairly.
