A major battery manufacturer has resumed production at its Hungarian plant after halting operations in August due to unsafe working conditions linked to elevated nickel exposure among employees. Health and safety concerns prompted the shutdown, raising questions about workplace protections in the fast-growing battery production sector. Regulatory oversight and internal protocols are now under scrutiny as the company works to ensure compliance and prevent recurrence. The restart follows an investigation into the incident, though details on corrective measures remain limited.
CATL restarted operations at its Debrecen battery plant following an August suspension after workers were exposed to high nickel levels.
