Hyundai Motor Co. will give workers in Alabama and Georgia a 25% raise over the next four years, following moves by Toyota Motor Corp. and Honda Motor Co. to increase pay and ward off possible inroads by the United Auto Workers union.
The “new wage structure” will affect roughly 4,000 production workers at its assembly plant in Alabama along with a new plant being built near Savannah, Georgia, that is scheduled to start production in 2025, the Korean automaker said in a statement Monday.
