Despite the fact that several workers are still unsure that they want to continue to work full time starting next week, Honda Motor Company has announced that it will resume car production on Friday.
Car production was momentarily halted because of protests from around 1,900 workers who want better pay and better conditions. They protested and would not work until these are met, and that meant the number 2 car producing company in Japan suffered a devastating suspension in production.
The Honda parts factory actually resumed their work last Wednesday, June 2, 2010, but not everyone decided to do so, as they still waited for some of the demands to be met, while they proclaimed that they will resume working by Friday.
One worker, Li, who only shared his last name, expressed the sentiment of the parts factory workers, by saying that it is certainly possible that another strike may happen again if the answers are still unsatisfying. On the other hand, Honda announced that several factories will fully resume work by Friday, including the Guangqi Honda, a joint venture to Guangzhou Auto Group. Two other factories are expected to resume work; one of them is the Dongfeng Honda and a factory that only produces exports.
