Solihull has also been the first to introduce the ‘Wounded, Injured, Sick’ training programme and ‘Early Service Leaver’ programme to support those leaving the Armed Forces. - In April 2014, the Solihull plant began the first ‘sector-based work academy programme’ in conjunction with Jobcentre Plus to support job seekers in gaining vital skills and work experience to then help secure future employment. This training course reinforces Jaguar Land Rover’s wider commitment to employability which includes ‘Inspiring Tomorrow’s Workforce’ to address the on-going challenge facing young people to secure employment..

  • LABOUR and TECHNOLOGY in the CAR INDUSTRY. Ford Strategies in Britain and Brazil
    LABOUR AND TECHNOLOGY IN THE CAR INDUSTRY. Ford strategies in Britain and Brazil Elizabeth Bortolaia Silva Thesis submitted for the Degree of PhD, Imperial College of Science and Technology University of London May 1988 LABOUR AND TECHNOLOGY IN THE CAR INDUSTRY Ford strategies in Britain and Brazil ABSTRACT This thesis looks at aspects of recent changes in international competition in the car industry. It examines the implications of the changes for the relationship between technology and work and it considers how strategies of multinational corporations interact with different national contexts. It is based on a case-study of the Ford Motor Company in its two largest factories in Britain and Brazil, Dagenham and São Bernardo. Chapter 1 describes existing theoretical approaches to comparative studies of technology and work, criticizes technological and cultural determinist approaches and argues for a method that draws on a 'historical regulation' approach. Chapters 2, 3 and 4 describe the long-term background and recent shifts in the pattern of international competition in the motor industry. In particular they look at important shifts in the late 1970s and 1980s and at Ford's changes in management structure and product strategy designed to meet these challenges. Chapter 5 considers recent debates on international productivity comparisons and presents a fieldwork-based comparison of the production process at Dagenham and São Bernardo. The description shows the importance of issues other than technology in determining the flexibility and quality of production. In different national contexts, 2 different mixes of technology and labour can produce comparable results. Chapters 6, 7 and 8 look at the national and local contexts of industrial relations in the two countries to throw light on the different patterns of change observed in the factories.

    Jaguar Land Rover to pause some UK production on chip shortage 1 Jaguar Land Rover will pause production at two UK factories, partly because of a shortage of computer chips. in Automotive News Europe / Reuters , 22-04-2021 Production at Jaguar Land Rover's factory in Castle Bromwich, shown, will be stopped temporarily. Output at Castle Bromwich and Halewood will be temporarily halted starting on Monday due to supply chain disruption, including a lack of semiconductors, the automaker said on Thursday. "We have adjusted production schedules for certain vehicles which means that our Castle Bromwich and Halewood manufacturing plants will be operating a limited period of non-production from Monday 26th April," the Tata Motors- owned company said. The production stoppage was first reported by the Guardian newspaper. https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/jaguar-land-rover-pause-some-uk-production-chip-shortage The models affected by production shutdown will be the Jaguar XE and XF sedans and the F-Type sports car, all built at Castle Bromwich, and the Land Rover Discovery Sport and Range Rover Evoque built at Halewood, the paper said. The shutdown is scheduled to last at least a week, according to the report. 2 JLR's plant in Solihull plant, England, which builds Range Rover models and the Jaguar F-Pace, is unaffected so far, the Guardian reported.
