Jabil, an American electronics multinational, has initiated collective redundancy procedures for 413 employees at its Marcianise facility (Caserta), announcing the cessation of its Italian operations by March. Under Law 223/91, the redundancies will take effect within 75 days.
The company, which recorded losses exceeding 40 million in 2019, had proposed an alternative solution through the sale of the site to TME Engineering with Invitalia's participation, but workers and trade unions rejected the agreement, leading to the closure of the historic Italian plant.
Updated, 26/06/2025: Jabil workers have protested at the US Consulate in Naples against potential job losses. According to Uilm trade union representative, workers demonstrated at the Consulate to send their message directly to American ownership, citing insufficient support from Campania Region and the Ministry of Enterprise and Made in Italy. The workers oppose the transfer and have repeatedly expressed this position throughout the ongoing dispute. A delegation was received by the Consulate's public relations officer and delivered a letter for transmission to the company. This represents the latest effort by workers who have previously protested at the US Consulate without achieving concrete results.
Updated, 01/08/2025: Jabil has formally transferred production activities to TME Assembly Engineering S.r.l., avoiding the redundancy for 404 workers. The American multinational concluded the handover on Friday, August 1, transferring shares of Jabil Italia NewCo S.r.l. to TME, part of the Test and Manufacturing Engineering group.
