Super-Majority Of Workers At EV Battery Maker Blueoval SK In Kentucky Sign Union Cards, Launch Public Campaign To Join The UAW

(GLENDALE, KENTUCKY) – A super-majority of Workers employed at BlueOval SK (BOSK) in Kentucky have signed Union Authorization Cards and launched their public campaign to join the United Auto Workers (UAW).

The campaign launch at BOSK, a joint venture of Ford and SK On, is the latest breakthrough for Electric Vehicle (EV) Battery Workers organizing with the UAW.

BOSK Workers explain “Battery Workers are Auto Workers” and deserve “the good, safe Union jobs” that UAW Members have won elsewhere in the Auto Industry.

The BOSK Workers are building on the victories of UAW Battery Workers at Ultium Cells in Lordstown, Ohio and Spring Hill, Tennessee.

Ultium is the joint venture that makes batteries for General Motors’ EV fleet.

In June, UAW Members at Ultium in Lordstown, Ohio won a contract with the same strong standards UAW Members have at all General Motors Facilities.

In September, Workers at Ultium’s new Plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee formed their Union and are now preparing to negotiate their Union contract.
