The local union informs that around 9,000 of the factory’s 13,500 employees will stay home these three days and receive 85% of their regular pay.
Work in some of the factory’s departments will carry on as usual, but no cars will be built.
Sources among the staff say Dacia’s timeout might end up as long as seven days, depending on whether the Government decides to increase the number of vehicles that may be bought through the national clunkers program.
