“We want the truth”: Rank-and-File examination that the wall of silence about the death of the star dealer Ronald Adams, Sr.

The International Workers Alliance of Rank-And-File Committees (IWA-RFC) has initiated an independent examination of the death of the Stellatis worker Ronald Adams, Sr., in the Dundee Engine Complex in Southeast Michigan. The examination, which is directed by rank and file workers, aims to break through the official still murple that surrounds the tragic and avoidable death of the respected 63-year-old worker from Detroit.

A worker in the Dundee plant said that since Adam's death has been “Still-Hush”, with none of the company or United Auto Workers officer said. In the nearby car systems, including the Toledo Jeep complex and the factories in Metro Detroit, employees are aware of death, but do not receive any details from the management or the United Auto Workers.

According to first reports, Adam's maintenance work on a Cinetic washing machine in the 7300 department was headed by an overhead wardrobe was classified on a conveyor and violated fatal nonsense that violates its upper upper body. However, further questions remain unanswered as answered, including the question of whether the lockout/day-out system was compromised, whether the location of the electricity source of the wardrobe was not properly labeled and whether the cost reduction, acceleration and the similar factors were contributed to the tragedy during the renovation process.

In a brief reference to Adams on Workers Memorial Day on April 28, the UAW said: “The incident is currently being examined by the Department of Health and Security Department of UAW-Stellantis with the support of the International Union, the Department of Health and Security by UAW and the Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration (Miosha).”

Family members and workers support an independent examination because they do not want any further cover -up that relieves the company and the UAW and tries to postpone the fault of the victim himself. This is particularly outrageous because Adams was a highly qualified and experienced worker who was known as a violent lawyer for security at the workplace in the factory.

A family member reported on the fact that the UAW and the Stellantis carried out a “joint examination” for the death of the beloved father and grandfather: “So, they carry out their own investigations for themselves.” She concluded: “Well, you make your investigation. We want our own investigation. We want the truth.”

There are already reports from Adams' employees that the arm on the wardrobe that crushed it has been replaced. Employees are concerned that this original equipment can be demonstrated or manipulated together with other critical, such as IT recordings about lockouts.

In the five weeks since the fatal accident, the UAW, the company and Miosha have not published any information about the victim's family, employees or the public about their causes and the circumstances behind it.
