The Vigo plant of French automobile group PSA is preparing to resume activity from 27 April , following a six-week lockdown in Spain after the state of alert decree issued on 15 March. However, this return to work should be gradual and at low capacity, since order volumes are expected to be diminished. This new business landscape has prompted management to present a temporary job reduction plan (ERTE) to the works council, justified for organisational and production reasons. The plan guarantees 80% of gross salary until 31 December. This proposal was accepted by the SIT and UGT unions but was rejected by CCOO and the Galician nationalist unions CIG and CUT.
The procedure is set to come into force once the plan for partial unemployment in cases of force majeure, which was activated when the state of alert was declared, comes to an end, in accordance with the exceptional arrangements put in place to deal with the crisis, to support companies and prevent them from resorting to redundancies (see article nº11729).
