General Motors Canada is looking to fill nearly 1,700 new unionized jobs — 1,500 of them production workers — at its Oshawa, Ontario, assembly plant.
The automaker is investing $1.3 billion in the factory so it can once again build full-size pickups there. Trucks are expected to begin rolling off the line in early 2022.
General Motors says it also needs 110 certified electricians and 60 certified industrial mechanic millwrights.
All the open positions are permanent, full-time jobs, eligible for pay and benefits in accordance with the GM-Unifor collective agreement.
Production workers will be paid an hourly wage of $23; electricians start at $43 per hour; and millwrights earn $43 per hour.
