Since I doubt any union officials would admit to its existence but its a matter of record in a federal court case against Ford for wrongful termination. Interesting read and a 4.8 million judgement against the UAW / Ford. www.lawyersandsettlements.com/settlements/02830/ford_employee.html#.VdJf35dryYxQuote: " 10% Agreement, in which officials at Ford and officials of the UAW agreed to set aside 10% of all hourly job openings nationwide within Ford for friends and relatives of high-ranking officials within the UAW. This 10% Agreement led to the hiring of an electrician at the Sharonville Plant named Richard Forste ("Forste"), who was a referral of a powerful UAW official in Detroit. The evidence showed that the Sharonville Plant did not have an opening for an electrician at this time and that Himmel resisted and objected to the hiring of Forste. Himmel was nonetheless ordered to hire Forste by Ford officials in Detroit. "
