Description
Adient Trim, a Romanian subsidiary of Adient plc, an American-Irish-domiciled company that manufactures automotive seating, announced that it will dismiss all 1010 persons by mid-2027 at its Ploiesti plant (Prahova County). The company motivates the decision by decreasing consumer demand and the general decline in market volumes, stating that it has not identified any viable option for continuing activity at the Prahova unit.
About two years ago, Adient already announced a restructuring process for its operations in Europe, which involved eliminating some positions and transferring some activities to countries with lower labour costs.
Globally, Adient has over 75 000 employees, operates in 29 countries and owns more than 200 manufacturing and assembly facilities.
