As some of you may know i work at Toyotas factory in Derby. We had a company announcement last night at work.
Because of falling sales and other political/economic reasons we will not be running a night shift in the assembly shop where we build the Toyota Auris for the next five months. The auris will only be built on days. The rest of the factory will continue to run days/nights building Avensis.
What that means is 400 employees will be paid for doing odd jobs, cleaning, and anything else the company can find them to keep them busy on day shift. Sounds good but....
In reality however, these people will loose thier night shift bonas which is 30% of half thier pay (we do 2 weeks day/2 weeks nights). £300ish each month.
OUCH !
I work in a part of the plant where we process both models on a single production line so (hopefully) it will not effect me.
