Captive bosses holed up at French factory

TWO bosses held captive by workers have spent the night inside a tyre factory in northern France that the company wants to close.

The plant, which Goodyear has tried to sell or shutter for five years, has become an emblem of France's labour issues, and the seizure of the two managers - the plant's director and human resources chief - resurrected the once-common practice of boss-napping.

Sylvain Niel, a labour lawyer who has worked on similar issues, said on Tuesday the tactic had fallen away because any agreements secured while bosses were deemed to be under pressure were later voided in courts.

He described the incident as an act of despair by workers "without room to manoeuvre."

But the Amiens plant has an especially contentious past, with sometimes violent protests against the closure.
