Automotive News Europe reports the United Auto Workers may borrow from German labor unions' playbook. UAW President Bob King says that he's seen the merit of the country's labor system after having being appointed to the supervisory board of Opel last year.

Those boards can also hire or fire executives, and special work councils handle decisions on issues like work hours, benefits and work conditions.
