Toyota is raising the wages of its factory workers — all of them non-unionized — after the UAW strikes at General Motors, Ford and Stellantis culminated in pay hikes for unionized employees.

Why it matters: After reaching tentative deals with the Detroit Three, the UAW is setting its sights on organizing non-unionized automotive plants in the U.S. — with Toyota a possible target.

Driving the news: Toyota spokesman Scott Vazin confirmed Tuesday in an email to Axios that the automaker “did provide wage increases today” for workers at all of its U.S. plants.

    Of course they do if they aren’t raising top out as well…but in union shops they are.

    The factory im in does the same thing. I went from operator to maintenance in a couple years and my pay went up 80%, but people starting today in my operator job are making 30% more now to do it than I did back then. Guess what, it’s a non union factory. I hate it, not because they don’t deserve good wages, but because the company collectively shits on the well trained workforce they have by doing that. They will reap what they sow in the end.
