PSA (Paris:UG):
As part of the ramp-up of the new Peugeot 5008 Sport Utility
Vehicle, and in order to meet the forecast production volumes, the
Rennes site will be putting a new production organisation in place
in the spring of 2017.
This new organisation will involve recruiting for 400 temporary
positions, and give the site the means to reach an annual
production volume of more than 100,000 vehicles starting in
2017.
Several organisational approaches are being studied. They will
be discussed with labour unions as part of social dialogue, to
build the future of the site together.
Furthermore, a significant training programme will be
implemented with temporary employment agencies and internal skills
training departments. Each future temporary employee will
participate in a training programme composed of between 100 and 200
hours of training, depending on their previous professional
experience. Once they have completed a two-month introductory
period, the temporary employee will be able to obtain a CQPM
(Certificat de Qualification Paritaire de la Métallurgie, a
professional certification in metalworking) as an autonomous
industrial production team member.
The goal of this training course is to help each person
integrate under the best possible conditions, and to build a
foundation of skills that are validated by the Union des industries
et métiers de la métallurgie (UIMM, Union of metallurgy industries)
at the national level in France, recognised across all the segments
of the metallurgy industry.
The PSA Rennes site is working in close collaboration with Pôle
Emploi (French employment centre), the UIMM, temporary employment
agencies in the Rennes metropolitan area, and the FAFTT (Fonds
d’Assurance Formation du Travail Temporaire, Temporary employment
training assistance fund) to develop the programme.
The implementation of this new team is part of the sites’
transformation and modernization momentum. It meets the Group’s
will to durably anchor Rennes in its industrial footprint.
While speaking on the implementation of this new organisation,
Maxime Picat, Vice-President, Europe, said: "Our sales goals for
the new Peugeot 5008 Sport Utility Vehicle are driving us to round
out our industrial system in Rennes by creating a new team. The
Peugeot 5008 will help the Rennes site grow once again, supported
by work that has increased site performance and profitability. This
is excellent news for the Rennes employees, and the entire regional
automotive sector."
