The Windsor Assembly Plant will be running a third shift again, starting on Tuesday.
The third shift will employ 1,700 people, bringing the total number of employees at the Stellantis plant to 6,000.
“Launching the new third shift at the Windsor Assembly Plant is a proud and significant milestone for Stellantis and for our Canadian operations,” said Trevor Longley, president and CEO, Stellantis Canada. “With production of our next-generation, award-winning Dodge Charger lineup and No. 1-selling Chrysler minivans ramping up, we’re creating jobs, expanding capacity and building real momentum. This investment reinforces our commitment to Canadian manufacturing and to the incredible team at Windsor Assembly."
According to Stellantis, nearly 250 employees from the Brampton Assembly Plant elected to transfer to Windsor.
A midnight, day, and afternoon shift will run in all major areas of the plant, including Body-in-White (BIW), Paint, General Assembly, and Material Handling. Skilled trades, including electricians, industrial mechanics, pipefitters, and toolmakers will also be involved in the third shift operations.
