Nissan has informed unions of plans to apply an ERE to 211 employees at its Catalan centers, 37 percent of a 596-person workforce. The measure affects three facilities in the Barcelona area.
The Japanese manufacturer detailed the procedure today during a meeting with representatives of SIGEN-USOC, CCOO and UGT at the Garrigues law firm. The ERE will impact the spare parts center in El Prat de Llobregat with 110 departures, the technical center in Zona Franca with 86 and the functional areas center in El Prat with 15.
The unions rejected starting the consultation period due to formal defects and announced actions and mobilizations in the coming days to show their rejection. Both sides will meet again on Thursday at the Generalitat's Department of Labor.
This decision is part of the global Re:Nissan plan, announced in May 2025, which foresees cutting 20,000 jobs worldwide and reducing plants from 17 to 10 by 2027. Last week the company announced a cut of 900 positions in Europe.
