Loading ... Continue to proliferate ERES Employment (EFE) time in the automotive sector due to low demand for factory orders, this time the shift is Almussafes Ford plant, particularly in the production of the Ford Focus.
The Directorate General of Labour of the Generalitat Valenciana has cleared the temporary ERE will ultimately affect a total of 4,577 workers at the plant in Valencia, 600 less than those proposed by management.
The address of the factory in Almussafes presented last November a temporary ERE proposal would affect up to 5,177 workers in the Valencia plant for 16 days (11 days), case rejected by the works council following the refusal of the company to complete up to 95 percent wages of those affected.
The multinational car, which this year presented another temporary ERE since 29 September to 17 December for about 1,000 employees, announced in November that it would stop its vehicle production for 11 days until the end of 2008, from 8 to 24 December, "not" have "to work orders," a decision that meant leaving to produce 9,000 units of Ford Focus and that did not result in any injury wage for their workers.
What is the short-term impact of these adjustments in the sector? Probably the worst of this situation is yet to come, as these production stoppages have / will have consequences in the subsidiary companies will gradually diminish as their factory applications, and many can not bear its cost, taking as the only way to close these small subsidiaries.
