The works council of Volkswagen Navarre It has demanded this Friday that the company has the battery cell assembly plant at the Landaben plant to guarantee employment. Otherwise, he has warned that 600 jobs are “up in the air” from 2027.
The chairman of the committee, Alfredo Morales (UGT)has stated that this plant should come within the Landaben plant “because it brings added value, because this technology is key to the technological and industrial development of the plant and because it will cover the shortage of personnel from the year 2027”.
“Because of the cell assembly plant, we have no surpluses. If not, we will have 600 jobs in the air from 2027,” he stressed.
Alfredo Morales has explained that the management of Volkswagen Navarra has handed over to the committee that the decision on the battery plant “does not correspond to this management” but to “higher levels”, which the works council will ask for, with the cooperation of the committee worldwide, to received by the management of the group.
