Statement on Caterpillar, UAW Talks
by John Calhoun Wells, Director
Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service
Representatives of Caterpillar Inc. and the United Auto
Workers met jointly with us yesterday for 12 hours. They met separately for several hours
this morning, and, this afternoon, we met jointly again. Our discussions have been frank,
constructive and useful.
The parties need time now to review the remaining issues.
Following our joint session this afternoon, I have recessed the talks subject to call.
I look forward to reconvening these negotiations in the
very near future.
