The Volkswagen factory, located in Taubaté, is about to undergo a revolution, bringing good news for workers and boosting the automotive sector in the region. The collective work agreement, which is being discussed, provides for the manufacture of a new car model, an SUV, and the opening of over 130 job positions, in addition to ensuring job security until 2028.

Measures To Maintain The Competitiveness Of The Volkswagen Factory Are Also Part Of The Package

To maintain the competitiveness of the factory, Volkswagen will also adopt some measures, such as the maintenance of the Voluntary Dismissal Program, which has been in effect since 2021.

In addition, collective vacations and layoffs will be used when the market shows instability.

The outsourcing of 65 workers from pre-assembly and maintenance sectors is also part of the company’s plan.

The last investment made by Volkswagen in the Taubaté unit was announced in 2021, with the implementation of the new production line on the MQB platform.

This investment is part of the R$ 7 billion that the company planned to invest in Latin America between 2022 and 2026.

Although the exact amount for the Taubaté factory has not been disclosed.

With the MQB platform, the factory expanded its operation to three shifts and employed about 3,100 workers.

Job security, at that time, was guaranteed until 2025.

However, in March of this year, the factory faced challenges due to the sales of new cars being below expectations, resulting in collective vacations for about 2,900 workers.

In July, a two-month layoff for 800 employees was anticipated, but due to the positive sales performance of the Polo Track, manufactured at the unit, the layoff was suspended.

In the end, the company opted for an additional 10 days of collective vacation for 2,000 employees.

This collective agreement at the Volkswagen factory in Taubaté is a positive sign for the local economy and for workers, strengthening the automotive industry in the region and offering job positions in a crucial sector for Brazil’s growth.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

China opens the world’s first school where more than 100 humanoid robots from different brands will study together, each movement will be repeated up to 600 times a day and the data will feed a collective brain that will teach all the robots of the future.

Cambodia has started digging a nearly 180-kilometer canal to connect the Mekong River directly to the sea and reduce its dependence on the ports of neighboring Vietnam.

Scientists considered detonating 213 nuclear bombs in the Sahara to create an artificial sea the size of El Salvador, with each explosion being a hundred times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, and the goal was to generate more energy than Egypt’s largest hydroelectric plant.

Wax notebook falls into latrine 800 years ago, survives intact in Germany and reveals Latin notes that may expose the routine of a high-status medieval merchant.

After more than 11 years orbiting Mars, NASA declared the MAVEN probe lost, which disappeared after passing behind the Red Planet in December, began to spin abnormally, depleted its batteries, and never responded to controllers on Earth again.

Free courses open 2,221 spots with classes in itinerant trailers from June 8 to 18 and training in gastronomy, technology, beauty, mechanics, pets, and elderly care in SP.

Hyundai sells an executive minivan that looks like a VIP room on wheels: Custin carries 7 people, uses a 1.5 turbo engine with 168 hp, 8-speed automatic transmission, and costs around R$ 157,000 in direct conversion in Vietnam.

China creates a capsule with artificial intelligence that scans the stomach in just 8 minutes and can reduce costs by up to R$ 1,400, paving the way for a new era of gastrointestinal diagnostics without tubes, sedation, and discomfort for patients.

Peugeot publicly acknowledged the errors of the PureTech engine, which caused serious failures in hundreds of thousands of cars, and introduced the new Turbo 100 as a definitive solution, a 1.2 turbo tested for over 3 million kilometers that replaces the faulty belt with a more durable chain.

Automatic cars become ‘cheap’ in Brazil, and models from Toyota, Hyundai, Nissan, and Honda appear for R$ 65,000 with up to 120 hp, CVT transmission, 482 liters of trunk space, keyless entry, and six airbags to tackle traffic without a clutch.
