The move comes as other carmakers whose workers are not unionized have been raising pay after the United Auto Workers (UAW) union reached new labor deals with the Detroit Three — Ford, Stellantis and General Motors.

The UAW deals included a 25% increase in base wages through 2028, a cut in the time needed to reach top pay to three years from eight years, a 150% boost to the pay of temporary workers.

Tesla did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
