Honda Motor said on Friday it was implementing an 11% pay increase for production workers at its U.S. facilities from January.
The company also said it would cut the time it takes for a worker to get to the top wage tier to three years from six, confirming an earlier Wall Street Journal report.
The move comes as non-unionized automakers such as Honda come under pressure to improve pay and benefits following record contracts that the United Auto Workers (UAW) union won at the Detroit Three automakers.
