The meeting between Stellantis and the unions will be held on Monday 27 May
Monday 27 May 2024 at 5.00 pm Turin there will be a decisive meeting betweenCEO Of Stellantis, Carlos Tavareshey labor unions metalworkers to discuss future prospects. The meeting follows one strike to Turin for the relaunch of Mirafiori and precedes a meeting at Ministry of Enterprise on the factories of Pomigliano d’Arco And Cassino. The Turin plant has suffered reductions in activities, layoffs and suspension of production until June. Meanwhile Stellantis started selling the Chinese partner’s cars Leapmotor and threatened to close factories if a second manufacturer entered Italy.
The climate seems a bit tense, with the government having criticized the production of theAlfa Romeo Junior in Poland and the use of the Tricolor Flag on FIAT Topolino and on the FIAT 600, assembled abroad. Almost a year after the announcement of the automotive table, which was supposed to guarantee the production of one million cars in Italy, the situation worsened. At the beginning of May, the national coordination of Uilm inside Stellantis one threatened national strike if the production programs had not been clarified, indicating investments and timing. The first move of Tavares could lead to the hypothesis of transferring the production of FIAT 500 hybrid a Mirafioria proposal not implemented in the past. Olivier Francois, CEO Of FIATstated that work is underway to build a new one FIAT 500 hybrid to Turin together with the electric variant, requiring a significant investment that cannot be achieved before 2026. Even if confirmed, this proposal is unlikely to satisfy the unions, both due to the employment volumes and the extended timescales.
