Mexican Volkswagen workers could soon be on strike if their salary demands are not met. The 6,500 workers build the Jetta, Tiguan, and Taos at the company’s Puebla plant, the largest Volkswagen facility outside of Germany. Their union, SITIAVW, is one of Mexico’s most storied independent unions, and is in the midst of an annual wage reopener at the plant. On September 11, workers overwhelmingly voted down the company’s offer of a 10 percent combined increase to wages and benefits.
