Factory workers at Renault-Nissan's car plant in southern India will not report for work from Wednesday as their COVID-related safety demands have not been met, a union representing the workers told the company in a letter on Monday.
The strike at the plant in Tamil Nadu, jointly owned by Nissan Motor (7201.T) and alliance partner Renault (RENA.PA), comes ahead of a court hearing over allegations from workers that social distancing norms were being flouted and company-provided health benefits outweighed the risk to their lives.
Nissan, which owns a majority stake in the plant, declined to comment, saying the matter is in court.
Renault-Nissan told an Indian court last week it rejected claims that COVID-19 safety protocols were being ignored at the factory, adding it needs to continue production at its car plant to meet orders, Reuters reported on Sunday. read more
