Ferrero does not stop even with the lockdown: a 2 thousand euro employee bonus

Ferrero distributed to approx 6 thousand employees of the Italian plants a prize of 2,100 euros gross plus in paychecks for the work carried out during the most difficult months of the epidemic.

Even during the lockdown for Covid-19, the Italian multinational managed to keep production active, allowing workers not only to operate safely but also to be able to achieve the objectives set out in the supplementary company agreement between the owners and the unions.

Ferrero does not stop even with the lockdown: the agreement

According to the agreement, the bonus could reach a maximum of 2,200 euros gross calculated on the basis of two criteria. On the one hand, the economic result achieved at the end of the financial year on 31 August 2019 by the company as a whole, which accounted for 30% of the amount.

On the other hand, the specific trend was taken into consideration, factory by factory, or production area, also assessed during the current management, up to August, and which contributed for 70% of the premium, the largest part of the sum.

For example, the Alba plant earned a bonus of € 2,105 gross per employee. Even more so in Balvano, Basilicata, where Nutella Biscuits are produced, and where each worker will receive 2,127 more in their October paycheck. The highest prize was won by the Sant’Angelo dei Lombardi plant, near Avellino, with 2,170 euros each.

The company and the trade unions agree in recognizing and communicating that this result is the demonstration of how “consolidated and profitable industrial relations” have a “strategic role” to achieve shared goals, even “in a particularly difficult and complicated year”, due to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.

Ferrero does not stop even with the lockdown: the initiative

A year that Ferrero wanted to characterize with another initiative promoted a few days ago in collaboration with Enit, the National Tourism Agency.

The “Ti amo Italia” campaign with which the multinational brings the most evoked views of the country to the jars of Nutella. A special collector’s edition on sale from 12 October, with 30 prints of the most beautiful places around all regions, from Gran Sasso to Cinque Terre, from Scala dei Turchi to Gran Paradiso, from Monte Rosa to Venice, from Lake Como to the trulli of Alberobello.
