General Motors Co. employees represented by the United Auto Workers are still on strike, with today being day 17. GM and the UAW resumed negotiations today, however, an agreement has not yet been reached. The union presented the firm with a counterproposal, and it appears that GM has yet to respond. According to a statement given by the president of the union, it seems that challenging topics at the bargaining table include fixed costs, declining sales, and the compensation of temporary workers.
