Stellantis has signed an agreement with the unions to extend the reduced working hours program at the Mirafiori plant in Turin by five months, due to weak demand.

The agreement provides for a temporary reduction in salaries and will apply between September 1 and January 31. The Mirafiori plant, known for the Fiat brand, is facing a prolonged decline, and Stellantis intends to revitalize the factory by launching a hybrid version of the Fiat 500 model. The Fiom-CGIL union has requested the urgent allocation of a new model to ensure the continuity of production, considering that Stellantis's car production in Italy has reached its lowest level in the last seven decades.
