A CGT representative from the Lionel Arbilol refinery believes that “ operation appears to be correct “, as long as” Rhône Énergies (RE) intends to keep jobs on site, and employ twelve people “. For 15 months, “ our social achievements and collective agreements will be renegotiated, knowing that RE is committed to maintaining them for the most part “. In the case of indirect jobs, ” we take stock with our subcontractors to renew contracts with Rhône Énergies “. Change is well underway, but still ” leap into the unknown » and who wants to watch.
