Description
On January, 15, 2019, an agreement on collective redundancies at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' plants in Mirafiori and and Grugliasco (Maserati) was signed between the company and the trade unions.
The agreement envisages the dismissal of 1,050 Mirafiori and Maserati workers. From next week, the people who will have the requisites will be able to start leaving the company. There is an extra economic incentives in the redudancy package for those who meet the criteria outlined in the agreement.
Although it signed the agreement, the local branch of the trade union FIOM-CGIL expressed its deep concern for the new workforce reduction and deep worries for the lack of a more comprehensive industrial plan, which makes it impossible to understand the occupational perspectives of the company's workforce.
