UAW STRIKE * USA: Againsts Ford, unless new local deal can be reached

* Michigan - UAW gets ready to strike Ford’s Truck Plant in Kansas City
-- Strike will happen in five days unless new local deal can be reached, union says... The United Auto Workers union is getting ready to strike Ford Motor Co.’s truck plant in Kansas City, Mo., putting one of the company’s most important factories at risk for a work stoppage... The dispute hinges on issues specific to the local contract, such as manpower provisions and scheduling for skilled trade workers... A strike would be crippling for Ford, which builds its highly-profitable F-150 truck at the 7,500-worker plant. The no. 2 U.S. auto maker has already lost production of its top-selling truck this year due to a lengthy factory changeover to prepare for the pickup’s new aluminum body... The UAW is also in the midst of negotiating a new national agreement with Ford for the company’s nearly 53,000 U.S. factory workers...
