The GP is offering a new purchase course for some American factory workers while automotive company is looking to cut costs after 2024.
The car manufacturer confirmed on Friday that it would provide volunteer purchases to some workers in Detroit, Ohio and Illinois.
“Stellantis continues to review its work to improve efficiency and maintain competitive capacity in a very dynamic market,” the company said in a statement.
The unified vehicle workers’ union, which represents most of the workers of Stelanti Factory, said in a statement that it had negotiated a package with the new leadership team of Stelantis, which gives workers the most options.
“For those who are ready to retire, there is a clear way. For others, ending voluntary ending is now on the table.
Earlier, Detroit Free Press published.
The relationship between the union and the car manufacturing company under the control of former CEO Carlos Tavaris was sour, who suddenly left Stellant in December after US car sales dropped.
The president of the University of Yu Seosen Fayn claimed that the company’s manufacturer had failed to keep its promises in the 2023 bargaining contract, and has based its principles for a nationwide demonstration. The company then filed a complaint against UAW in the Federal Court.
Stelantes’ president John Elkan is now leading Tavaris’ replacement, which will be announced in the first half of this year.
The transatlantic car reduction attack began before Tavaris’s exit. In March 2024, Stelantis sacked 400 US wage workers, after twice in 2023 for groups of thousands of American workers.
The company said employees remained until May 8 to decide whether to accept the latest offer.
