Audi workers who seized the keys to 200 vehicles are given a warning.

The Audi Brussels factory will not produce until the keys of about 200 completed cars seized by the workers are delivered.

The management of Audi's Brussels factory announced the final decisions taken after the tension with the workers following the allocation of any model to be produced in the facility by the Volkswagen Group. The management stated that the factory will be closed unless the workers continue production normally and deliver the seized car keys, and that no payment will be made to the workers during this process. Meanwhile, about 150 workers gathered in front of the factory this morning to protest against the management.

NO NEW MODEL ALLOCATED

The German car manufacturer Audi, owned by the Volkswagen Group, announced that due to the decrease in demand, the Brussels factory where the luxury segment electric car model Q8 is produced and about 3,000 people work will undergo restructuring, and the production of these models will continue in Mexico. Last week, the Audi management also reported that no new model was allocated to the Brussels factory for production by the Volkswagen Group.

PROTEST TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 16

The workers were expecting a new model to be determined for production in the factory. This situation and the uncertainty about their future disturbed the factory workers and unions. Last week, enough workers did not start work for normal production in the factory. In addition, Audi Brussels employees will organize a protest in Brussels on September 16 to draw attention to the problems they are facing.
