IAM Outraged at Harley-Davidson’s Plans to Move Production to Thailand
Posted On: Aug 09, 2024
Aug. 9, 2024 | COLLECTIVE BARGAINING | Brian Bryant, International President of the 600,000-member International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM), released the following statement on Harley-Davidson’s decision to move production of Sport Series and Pan America bikes to Thailand:“Harley-Davidson’s recent announcement to ship our work and jobs to Thailand is a kick in the teeth to American workers and a betrayal of the company’s legacy as an American icon. In 2019, nearly 600 IAM members at Harley-Davidson and Syncreon in Kansas City lost their jobs when the company shuttered its facility, claiming that its Thailand plant would only serve the Asian and European markets. “Harley-Davidson has backtracked on that promise, planning to manufacture these bikes abroad and send them back to the U.S. for American consumers.” goiam.org
