Even with settlement reached, strike's economic impact grows
While GM and the UAW have reached a tentative agreement, the economic impact of the strike continues to increase. The strike led to more than $835 million in lost wages for employees, and $1.5 billion in lost profits for the firm. Additionally, the federal government lost $313 million in tax revenue, and the state of Michigan lost $18.5 billion. It has been estimated that since the strike began, 75,000 supply workers have lost their jobs or faced reduced hours.
