Progress

Over the last year, we made progress in a number of areas related to our key stakeholders. For example, we:

  • Announced plans to add 7,000 new hourly and salaried jobs in the United States between 2011 and 2012
  • Paid profit sharing to eligible UAW members and awarded bonuses to U.S. employees
  • Continued our trend of steady and marked improvement in our global lost-time case rate (a major safety indicator); it dropped 11 percent from 2009 to 2010
  • Continued to win recognition for our diversity efforts
  • Supported hundreds of organizations with charitable grants totaling $29 million
  • Provided more than 112,000 hours of employee and retiree community service work – the equivalent of $2.25 million in in-kind corporate contributions
