(Reuters) – Common Motors (NYSE:) will cancel 1,245 layoffs at its factories in Sao Jose dos Campos, Sao Caetano do Sul and Mogi das Cruzes within the state of Sao Paulo, the union representing metalworkers stated on Saturday.
The announcement was made a day after a Brazilian labor courtroom rejected the U.S. automaker’s request for an injunction to keep up the layoffs.
Saving the roles was a “historic victory” following a 13-day strike, the Sindmetal union stated in a press release, including that GM representatives will meet union leaders on Monday to verify the choice.
