The German car manufacturer Opel, a subsidiary of the French group PSA, is preparing to cut up to 4,100 jobs against the background of a global drop in car sales and technological upheaval in the sector, reported Monday evening the news agency Bloomberg.
Citing a source familiar with the matter, the agency said that at least 2,100 jobs will be cut by 2025 and that two waves of workforce reductions of a thousand each could follow in 2027 and 2029. Opel employees will be informed Tuesday.
The automotive sector, which is undergoing a global market slowdown, particularly in China, must also adapt to the tightening of pollution rules and invest massively in the development of electric vehicles and autonomous vehicles.
