Toyota Kirloskar Motors (TKM) has withdrawn the official lockout at the two manufacturing plants in Bidadi, Karnataka. The Bengaluru-based carmaker started the second shift at both the plants from today.
Toyota, however, refused to revoke the suspension pending enquiry of 66 unionized employees it accuses of ‘serious misconducts’. “Employees returning to work will sign a simple undertaking for good conduct and report to work”, said TKM in a statement.
