United Auto Workers President Bob King said yesterday he has asked for higher wages for new workers at General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co. and Chrysler Group LLC, which he said won’t add to the companies’ fixed costs.
“We’re very concerned about the entry-level workers having a middle-class standard of living, which I would argue they don’t at the current rate,” King said following a speech in Detroit. “So I would say that’s the highest priority.”
