Setterwalls has assisted FIAT in connection with Scandinavian centralisation and restructuring

Setterwalls has advised FIAT in connection with the centralisation and restructuring of FIAT’s business in Scandinavia.

The aim of the centralisation, implemented gradually during 2014, has been to facilitate the working environment for Scandinavia and achieve synergy effects in order to better serve the Scandinavian market. Among other things, Setterwalls has assisted FIAT with all negotiations and other employment related issues in connection with the centralisation.
