GM: 900 Factory Jobs in Michigan this Year

General Motors says 900 factory jobs will be created or retained in Michigan this year.

The positions are in addition to previous announcements about job growth made by the company, which said in January that it would add 7,000 jobs and $1 billion in U.S. investments.

The news also follows layoff notices filed with the state, which called for shift eliminations at the Hamtramck and Delta Township stamping plant near Lansing.
