Peugeot Peugeot-Citroen has said it will meet with worker representatives on Thursday to discuss plans to cut 850 jobs [the third shift] at its Ryton plant, near Coventry.


The Transport & General Workers Union (TGWU), and Amicus both told the BBC they would meet with Peugeot’s UK management.


Peugeot on Monday said rising competition in the small car sector and a dip in sales of its 206 model had led to the job cuts while trade unions have vowed to oppose compulsory redundancies at Ryton, which employs about 2,800 workers, the broadcaster noted.
