"I am a grass-roots employee of Zhongtai New Energy Automobile. Since October last year, the company has been in arrears for 8 to 10 months, and social security, provident fund, and taxes have been cut off for eight months. as a result, colleagues' maternity allowance, industrial injury insurance, medical insurance card can not be used, hukou cannot be moved, houses cannot be bought, and so on." A Zhongtai auto employee posted a rights post online. What makes these rights-activist employees even more disappointed is that not long ago, Zhongtai signed an arbitration mediation agreement with 100 employees to negotiate the payment of full wages on June 30, and then it has already entered July, and the wages owed by employees are still unknown.
Zhongtai Automobile has already had operational problems in 2019, with a sharp drop in new car sales, a shutdown of production at many production bases, and even huge losses, which keep Zhongtai in trouble. Under such circumstances, Zhongtai employees are miserable, and the storm of arrears of wages and arrears continues to ferment.
The above Zhongtai employee said, "in April this year, some of our colleagues went to the labor bureau of the district to protect their rights, asked the government to intervene to help ask for wages, and were told to apply for labor arbitration and follow legal procedures." Hundreds of people in the company are divided into different groups and apply for labor arbitration with free legal aid provided by the government. " At that time, it was said that the Labor and personnel dispute Arbitration Commission of Hangzhou Qiantang New area and relevant local departments had opened a green channel for Zhongtai Automobile Collective unpaid wage Arbitration, and a number of lawyers provided legal aid for Zhongtai employees.
In mid-June, wage-seeking employees ushered in the mediation results. Zhongtai and some employees reached a consensus on the payment amount and payment cycle, and signed an arbitration mediation statement to pay all arrears of wages on June 30, if not paid or faced with enforcement.
Employees continue to protect their rights and wait, the end result is Zhongtai's dishonesty. Zhongtai employees said, "the mediation agreement that Zhongtai can apply to the court for enforcement if it does not pay before June 30, and the lawyer told us on June 28 that payment is hopeless to prepare for enforcement." and let us go to the court to confirm which court should go to which court to apply for enforcement, whether the company is located in Hangzhou or the property location (Jinhua Yongkang). We went to Hangzhou Economic Development District people's Court to apply for enforcement and were told that it could not be accepted. " Zhongtai employees also said that the civil cases and enforcement cases of Tieniu Group's companies and affiliated companies have been transferred to Yongkang Court for hearing.
What Zhongtai salaried employees can't stand is this kind of trouble. "most of us are migrant workers, and it is very difficult for us to make ends meet without wages and social security payments, and we have to go to other people's doorstep to ask for money." The above Zhongtai employees said.
Zhongtai Automobile is one of the independent car companies with difficult operation in China. affected by the changes in the market environment and the company's operating problems, Zhongtai production and operation almost stagnated, and the once huge "Zhongtai Empire" seems to be teetering. Prior to this, the Hunan base had decided to stop production and have a holiday for a year, and when the media visited Zhongtai Yongkang headquarters, they also found that only one or two hundred people went to work, and there had been no normal production so far this year.
According to the Zhongtai Automobile report, a total of 16215 cars were produced and 21224 vehicles were sold in 2019, with production and sales falling by more than 85% compared with the same period last year. In 2020, Zhongtai Motor's statistics at the passenger association showed a sharp decline, with cumulative sales of only 3573 vehicles from January to May, down as much as 96 per cent from the same period last year.
There are problems in the operation of Zhongtai Automobile, the sales volume plummeted, and the performance is a huge loss.
On June 22, Zhongtai officially released its annual performance report in 2019. During the reporting period, Zhongtai Motor's operating income in 2019 was 2.986 billion yuan, down 79.78% from the same period last year; net profit was a loss of 11.19 billion yuan, down 1498.98% from the same period last year.
In view of the reasons for the substantial loss in performance, Zhongtai Automobile said in the financial report: first, under the influence of the macroeconomic situation, the overall prosperity of the automobile industry is not high, and the competition in the industry is becoming increasingly fierce. the company's liquidity shortage and other factors led to a sharp decline in the company's vehicle sales, falling short of expectations. Due to the sharp decline in sales, the company's operating income has dropped sharply, and operating costs have risen relatively, resulting in large operating losses. The second is to make provision for impairment of large goodwill and other assets.
In addition, Zhongtai Automobile shares have been delisted risk warning, the short name of the stock has been changed from "Zhongtai Automobile" to "* ST Zhongtai", and the daily rise or fall limit of stock trading is 5%.
Its own poor management and changes in the industry environment have accelerated the collapse of Zhongtai Automobile. Zhongtai, which has many sub-brands, now has to significantly reduce its business, and a number of factories have been shut down. Since getting into trouble, Zhongtai has no new products to market. Zhongtai stressed in a performance report that the company is working hard to return to normal production and find ways to improve its operation.
In fact, under the environment of shrinking competition in the automobile industry, many car companies have encountered operational difficulties, suspending work and production, asking for wages for employees' rights, and frequent incidents for suppliers and dealers to protect their rights. China's automobile market is entering a new stage of shrinking competition, the concentration of the market is increasing, and weak brands are facing elimination.
