StrikeRadarOPERATIONS-CRITICAL STRIKE INTELLIGENCEEight hundred UFCW Local 7 members at JBS in Greeley, Colorado, began an unfair labor practice strike on March 16
About 800 United Food and Commercial Workers Local 7 members at JBS’s beef processing plant in Greeley, Colorado, walked off the job on March 16, launching the largest U.S. meatpacking strike since the 1985–86 Hormel dispute. Workers cite faster production line speeds, reductions in weekly hours from 40 to 35, and out-of-pocket costs for required protective equipment. The walkout is an unfair labor practice strike that follows bargaining since May 2025 and a contract expiration in July, after which more than 90% of workers voted to authorize a strike. Picketing swelled to over 1,000 outside the plant on March 20.
Elsewhere in North America, SINTTIA at General Motors’ Silao, Mexico, complex has set an April 15 strike deadline after proposing a 10% wage increase for 2026–2028, with a worker vote scheduled for April 9–10. In U.S. higher education, nearly 1,000 full-time contract faculty at New York University returned to work early Wednesday after CFU-UAW announced a tentative agreement less than 48 hours into their strike. Portland Community College reached a tentative deal with its Federation of Classified Employees to end a two-week strike ahead of a ratification vote Thursday, while its faculty union remains on strike and in negotiations.
Labor actions in North American manufacturing now span U.S. meatpacking and Mexico auto assembly, two sectors central to regional food and vehicle supply.
