Car equipment supplier SNWM has announced that it will recruit 103 employees to work on increasing production related to new car models launched by Renault (Espace, Talisman). SNWM will recruit production employees as well as engineers, initially mainly on short-term contracts greater than 6 months duration. It is the first wave of recruitment since 1983, after 12 social plans and a downsizing of the workforce from 1250 to 380 employees
