GM cutting employee hours at Rochester plant

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Additional changes impacting workers have been made at Rochester's General Motors plant. President of United Auto Workers Local 1097, Dan Maloney, told News 8 that 100 full-time employees were notified on Tuesday that they will be losing hours and moving to a shorter work week. Recent tariff changes, in addition to layoffs, have caused uncertainty among employees locally He added that the jobs are no longer needed due to an increase in EV sales elsewhere. 'The EV sales for General Motors are apparently flat or dropping off – one of our customers we deliver components to – the coolant lines for the battery packs is BrightDrop out of California, they've reported automated news they are laying off folks for five months. So… Canada… BrightDrop delivery trucks are out and then the factory zero in Detroit has laid off 200 people to make EV Silverados, and the electric Hummer.' Maloney said. In March, 26 employees were told they were being laid off indefinitely. MCWA discusses fluoridation during national debate From Christmas of 2024 to date, this has brought the total of part-time and full-time employees who have been laid off or had their positions scaled back at the plant to 200. 'People again are uneasy. They don't know what the future holds. And I don't think management locally in Rochester knows exactly what the future holds. There's definitely some uneasiness among the hourly workforce,' said Maloney. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
