Fiat to pause production in Kragujevac until September 3
After they returned from their vacation, FCA workers spent only five days at work. They will end August with a five-day paid leave.
– The production was paused in order to balance the demand with the production of 500L cars. It is known that the demand is lower from June till August, and FCA doesn’t stock cars, but produces them to be sold – said Zoran Markovic, the president of the Autonomous Trade Union.
He confirmed that the employees would be paid 65% of their salary during the leave under the Labor Law.
Markovic said that paid leaves had been a usual occurrence in the past years, due to either “harmonizing with the production plans” or the demand or the halts at subcontractors or suppliers.
– These leaves confirm that, to operate at full capacity, we need a new product, a new model. It’s not enough to just produce 500L in three versions – Markovic said.
He pointed out that, more than paid leaves, the workers are worried whether the contract with FCA will be extended, as the ten-year contract with the company expires on September 29.
