Concerns are growing as to whether U.S. automakers will be able to keep factories open amid high absenteeism and coronavirus cases increasing in several states where they operate.

The Detroit automaker believes workers at its plants shouldn't "be concerned about coming to work" because the company has implemented new procedures to keep everyone as safe as possible, according to Flores. He said the company plans to have the third shift return as soon as possible.

Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker said the company has hired above its normal level of temporary workers for this time of year but declined to release a total number. Fiat Chrysler has been experiencing "slightly higher" absenteeism than before the pandemic, according to spokeswoman Jodi Tinson. She said the company continues to hire new employees and remains "very pleased" with the restart of its production.

It also would create even greater tension between the Democratic governor andMichigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer wears a face mask as she arrives to address the media about the flooding along the Tittabawassee River, after several dams breached, in downtown Midland, Michigan U.S., May 20, 2020.as Covid-19 cases rise in the Great Lakes State.
