Description
Mahle, the manufacturer of pistons for motors, negotiated with the board that 125 workers be affected by the ‘Expediente de Regulación - ERE' (Redundancy Dismissal Procedure) through the termination of contracts that will affect its factories in Vilanova and la Geltrú (Barcelona) which involves reducing half of the adjustments that were presented in November. The remaining 380 workers for the Mahle factory will continue in a redundancy dismissal procedure on a short term basis for a maximum of 120 days.
