Administrative History

The United Automobile Workers of America, affiliated with the Congress of Industrial Organizations,began their organization drive in Muncie in 1935. Two years later the workers of the Warner GearDivision of Muncie were chartered as the Local 287 on March 25, 1937. Local 287 has been involved intwo strikes against BorgWarner (previously Warner Gear), once in 1953 that lasted for thirteen weeks,and another in 1989 that lasted for fifty-two days.

In 2007, BorgWarner requested to open contract negotiations with Local 287 due to decline in demandfor the plant`s main product line—transfer cases for Ford Motor Company transmission systems.On December 18, 2007, workers rejected the request and the decision was made to close the plant.BorgWarner of Muncie closed in April 2009.
