MILAN: Fiat Chrysler aims to restart operations at three Italian sites as soon as the government lifts coronavirus restrictions on manufacturing, a union representative said on Thursday, adding unions would monitor health precautions.
Despite Italy's lowest death toll from coronavirus in six days on Wednesday, Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte said a national lockdown in place since Mar 9, and due to expire on Friday, would be extended until at least Apr 13.The lockdown measures include a freeze on all non-essential economic activity, including car production.
Gianluca Ficco, a representative of the UILM metal workers' union, said unions had started talks with Fiat Chrysler to make sure all health and security requirements were met in factories, with a view to resuming operations after the lockdown.
Last week, before the national lockdown was extended, the carmaker had told unions it would have been ready to resume the same three operations on Apr 6 if the government had given its go-ahead.
