Bigger Bonuses for Big 3 Hourly Workers

Hourly workers for Detroit’s Big Three automakers could see larger bonuses this year. Ford, General Motors and Chrysler could reward U.S. hourly workers with another huge profit-sharing check, as manufacturing operations approach peak efficiency. The automakers are expected to announce specifics next month in regards to per-worker profit-sharing totals and their 2013 financial results. Based on anticipated earnings, industry analysts believe more than 800-million dollars in profit-sharing checks will go out.
