As part of a cost-cutting measure, workers at the Opel/Vauxhall plant at Ellsemere Port, UK, will switch to a four-day week from the current five-day setup. The move is also designed to assist the new Astra model changeover. The plant's future is apparently secured until 2015, but the reduced work week, along with a voluntary "down week" in September to help slow down production due to lagging sales, are worrying signs not just for Opel/Vauxhall but GM as a whole. from The Truth About Cars http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com
