FAILED TO PROVIDE THE GOOD QUALITY JOBS THEY PROMISED

Not only are they behind on their timetable for hiring workers, but the jobs that have been created also are not the family-sustaining, community-enriching jobs Giti promised.

Workers make between $4 and $8 less than the national average manufacturing wage.

GOT COVID RELIEF, STILL FIRED WORKERS DURING THE PANDEMIC

Giti got more than $9.8 million in Paycheck Protection Program aid that was meant to help small businesses weather the COVID-19 pandemic.

Giti obviously is not a small business and instead of using that money to protect jobs in our community, Giti laid off hundreds and many of them permanently.

Have you or someone you know been laid off by Giti Tire?
