Automotive

Globalisation and restructuring means the IMF and its affiliates must find ways to engage automotive companies to protect and defend the interest of workers in the sector.

IMF auto activities use company - and industry-based meetings, action groups and networks at the regional and global levels, along with research on trends impacting workers, to facilitate the exchange of information, build union contacts and develop strategies.

Helmut Lense, hlense@imfmetal.org, is the Automotive Director.
