MILAN, Nov 8 (Reuters) – Stellantis (STLA.MI) will halt operations at its Melfi plant in southern Italy on Wednesday and Thursday due to a shortage of a component using microchips, a trade unionist said.
Marco Lomio, the local head of UILM metalworkers union said on Tuesday that the Italo-French carmaker had just informed workers’ representatives.
A spokesman for the carmaker said the group has been taking decisions on operations on a day-by-day, plant-by-plant basis since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
