The United Auto Workers union expects to give no further concessions to U.S. automakers in contract talks next year and will seek to share in company profits in some way, President Bob King said on Wednesday.
King, elected to the union's top spot in June, also said Ford Motor Co has not been left at a labor cost disadvantage to rivals General Motors GM.UL and Chrysler that restructured in government-funded bankruptcies last year.
"Let me say this as clear as I can, I do not think there will be any concessions in 2011," King said at Reuters Global Autos Summit appearance in Detroit.
