Earlier, on November 10, it became known that the production units of KAMAZ PJSC returned to work in a five-day working week. At the end of July, the company announced that it would switch to a one-day work week starting on August 1, partly due to the lack of market growth prospects. At the end of August, the order to switch to a three-day working week, which had been under consideration since September, was canceled. At that time, the company said that the market had begun to stabilize "at low levels."
