Last Wednesday the direction of the French Multinational VALEO dedicated to the industry of automotion notified to the mass media his intention of closing the factory of lighting components of Barcelona (Spain) that has in the Sant Esteve Sesrovires population and of closing the production to the Jaen factory to 600 Kilometres.

Until the following day the workwrs representation did not receive direct notification of the direction of this closing and above with the intention on the part of the same one of which this it is negotiated during this week with a calendar of meetings of only three days (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) and with a maximum duration of two hours.

This measurement affects 261 workers that in the main They would be dismissed since the company does not want To use them in other factories that Multinational has in Barcelona and the only solution that gives is the replacement in Jaen and preretirement to which they fulfill the requirements.

The closing of this factory is illogical since year after year has been increasing his benefits the last one 13 % with regard to the previous one and owes only to organizational motives.
