(Reuters) - General Motors said Monday it is indefinitely laying off about 160 workers at plants in Indiana and Ohio because of the impact of the United Auto Workers strike of some facilities.
The UAW on Friday said it would strike GM's Lansing Delta Township assembly plant that makes the Buick Enclave and Chevrolet Traverse SUVs after previously striking GM's Missouri assembly plant and 18 parts distribution centers.
The Detroit automaker said last month it had been forced to idle its Fairfax, Kansas plant because of a parts shortage stemming from the strike, resulting in 2,000 indefinite layoffs.
