For a company like Strattec Security Corporation that's all-in on auto parts, word of a potential strike is followed closely.
"If anything we've learned through the Covid years, we've learned how to be flexible and adapt and change," said Frack Krejci, CEO and President of Strattec.
The Milwaukee-headquartered company produces a variety of parts, from door handles to power tailgates and key fobs. Many of those products go to Ford, GM, and Chrysler-maker Stellantis — the Big 3.
According to United Auto Workers (UAW), leaders of the union may lead strikes at a number of the Big 3 factories if demands aren't met. The union is demanding better pay and benefits.
NBC News reports that GM employees' pay grew just under 3% from 2018 through 2022. Pay for the head of GM, NBC reports, grew by more than 30% during that same time.
Krejci, who's worked in auto parts for decades, said they're prepared if the picket lines form.
