NOVEL PLOY TO CUT JOBS

CUTTING jobs in France is never easy. So Stellantis, the newly formed global automotive giant that produces everything from Peugeot to Jeep and Alfa Romeo, has come up with a novel way to slim down its payroll: it sends workers emails with tips on how to get exciting new jobs – elsewhere. Employees are routinely sent alerts on career fairs and services that help write winning CVs – so much so that union representatives are accusing management of harassment and affecting motivation to work hard. | Bloomberg
