Renault Morocco commits to advancing worker rights with new agreements
Renault Group has reaffirmed its commitment to improving labor conditions and supporting worker rights in Morocco through the signing of new collective agreements. These agreements encompass all industrial and commercial entities operated by the group in the country.
On Wednesday, Renault signed agreements with the Democratic Confederation of Labour (CDT) for the Soaca factory and Renault Commerce Maroc, as well as with the Moroccan Labour Union for the Tangier plant. The ceremony was attended by Younes Sekkouri, Morocco’s Minister of Employment, and Ryad Mezzour, Minister of Industry.
The agreements aim to establish a unified framework for social dialogue, improving working conditions and securing social rights for more than 10,000 employees across Renault’s operations in Morocco.
Minister Sekkouri highlighted the initiative as a testament to Morocco’s dedication to protecting workers’ interests. Meanwhile, Minister Mezzour emphasized the importance of such measures for advancing Morocco’s automotive sector, urging Renault to focus on upmarket diversification rather than relying solely on cost competitiveness.
Mohamed Bachiri, Managing Director of Renault Group Morocco, described the agreements as a "decisive step" in structuring the company’s social model. He also underscored Morocco’s strategic significance in Renault's global operations, noting that nearly one in five vehicles sold internationally is manufactured in the country.
Renault has a long-standing history in Morocco, having operated there since 1928. The group dominates the Moroccan market, with over one in three vehicles sold locally bearing the Renault or Dacia brand. In 2024, Renault Morocco produced more than 413,000 vehicles, with 90% of this output exported to over 68 countries under the “Made in Morocco” label.
Morocco’s automotive sector continues to grow, producing over one million cars annually. Plans are underway to boost production capacity to 1.45 million vehicles, eventually reaching two million, solidifying the country’s position as a global automotive hub.
