Two weeks later non-essential businesses including car, clothing and furniture manufacturing were ordered to close.That forced Fiat Chrysler to close its Italian plants even though it had already introduced extraordinary security measures to protect workers.

The agreed measures include sanitising premises, taking workers' temperatures, providing safety devices such as face masks and hand gel, rearranging assembly layouts, marking floors to ensure one-metre between workers and staggering shifts. "The health and security of workers are the main priorities for FCA...
