Ducati Cuts Workforce Temporarily
Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. has initiated trade union discussions with regard to implementing a temporary workforce reduction of 100 employees for 17 calendar weeks starting from the end of August.
The manufacturer said the temporary workforce reduction comes from a need to reduce production in the last four months of the year when, in line with the company’s annual budget, reduced sales to the network are expected.
Company officials said lowering production is necessary to avoid creating high stock levels which would have “inevitable and significant consequences” on the company, and which would compromise the success of new models due out next spring.
