The metalworking unions in Turin have reached a deal with Stellantis to allow 1,520 workers to voluntarily and incentivized depart from their positions across 21 group companies in the region. This announcement was made by Uilm, which represents the workers.
Of the 1,520 workers who will be leaving, 733 will come from central structures, including both employees and managers. On the other hand, 300 departures will come from the Mirafiori body shops. According to Luigi Paone, general secretary of Uilm Turin, this is a high number of workers set to depart that indicates a worsening situation. He emphasizes that it is imperative to expedite discussions with Stellantis and institutions to develop a concrete revitalization plan for Mirafiori.
The high number of workers leaving highlights the severity of the challenges facing Stellantis in Turin. Immediate action is needed to address these challenges and ensure long-term sustainability and success for the company and its employees in the region. Discussions and planning for a revival of operations at Mirafiori are crucial to achieving this goal.
