Amelia Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 10,000 autoworkers get paid without working By JEFFREY MCCRACKEN Knight Ridder 2/6/2005 DETROIT - About 10,000 autoworkers in the United States and Canada are getting full wages and benefits not to work, a Detroit Free Press survey shows. All are hourly workers on long-term layoff at the traditional Big Three automakers and their biggest supplier, Delphi Corp., who are in so-called "jobs banks." The number appears to be up from the last few years and will likely grow again this year, though it still won't be as high as a decade ago. http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial/20050206/1064268.asp Quote <p><span style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="font-weight:bold;"><span style="font-style:italic;">"Do not use harmful words, but only helpful words, the kind that build up and provide what is needed, so that what you say will do good to those who hear you."</span></span> Eph 4:29</span><br><br><img src="http://banners.wunderground.com/weathersticker/gizmotimetemp_both/US/OR/Fairview.gif" alt="Fairview.gif"> Fairview Or</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
