nmsford Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 If/When Livonia does post expect the tier 1's from MAP with seniority dates before 2000 to fill those positions. When is Livonia supposed to post those jobs and how many? When Livonia does post the postings will go to Sterling and Rawsonville first then if not filled from there it'll go up at other plants. Any and all postings go to Sterling and Rawsonville before anywhere else. All legacy employees at those two locations are classified as supplemental and take #1 priority over everyone else, even locations with layoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pillsbarry Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 How many openings..idk ...as each stage gets closer...in the next 2-3 years we will add 2000 employees... skillee and unskilled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
182 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 If that happens I will be amazed. We were told we would hire 1500-2000. I doubt Livonia hires anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmsford Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 How many more are leaving van dyke? 40 left yesterday. As of now there's no plans for anymore to leave. At least that's what the union is telling us. But rumors are going around about anywhere from 40-100 more leaving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmsford Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 The 40 that just got to sterling Monday from vd r ecstatic they went from being the bottom 40 to having atleast 700 under them Ya they're glad to finally have some seniority. Quite a few people including me have begged them to let us come back to Sterling but it's not gonna happen. Unless it's as an apprentice lol. Any word if Sterling is planning on bringin on any apprentices any time soon???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axle72 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 If r trades were to go AWS like production did then they would most definitely need to add apprentices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statts Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I'm hearing another 150 are coming to sterling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmsford Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 That may be so but I highly doubt they'll be from Van dyke. Maybe some will be from all the layoffs coming up at MAP. Who are u hearing this from? Is it from a chairman/high up manager type, or from the guy you're working next to talking about rumors he heard from someone who heard from thier buddy???

nmsford Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 No they didn't all say that. People only knew when the finally came out and told the people who were getting laid off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetail Posted May 15, 2015 Author Share Posted May 15, 2015 The union here at Van Dyke said 2 months ago NO ONE was leaving, well 40 are gone now and we have layoffs scheduled one week for the next 3 months, my guess is we are still overroll and need to shed more manpower, maybe when our Union gets their head out of the sand and deals with the real issue, which is not enough work for the manpower we have. No new work until new line gets installed within 2 years. Short answer more people are leaving!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetail Posted May 15, 2015 Author Share Posted May 15, 2015 The other problem we have here is our union representatives have NO seniority and our protecting their own butts. Self serving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmsford Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I'm fairly new to Van dyke. only been there 2 years, so don't really know a ton of people. Does anyone who knows who's who think there will be a decent amount of retirees after the contract??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetail Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Yea, Chairman is protected until elections next spring, then bye, bye, to him and the rest of this committee!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
