The Bosch factory at Onet-le-Chateau, Rodez, has been under threat for some time and a meeting with the group management in Stuttgart brought no good news. The factory make diesel injectors and the downturn in diesel engine demand has brought about a threat to the 1500 jobs in the area. It is certain that 300 jobs will be lost and the longer term future of the plant is uncertain.
Workers at the plant are currently on short-time hours, with five days per month lost.
