Workers at the UK Peugeot plant have signalled the go-ahead for 700 new jobs to be created, by voting in favour of new shift patterns.
A fourth shift was proposed by the firm to expand production of the 206 model and to manufacture a new 206 estate model.
For the fourth shift to be introduced, the workforce had to accept changes to shift patterns and work practices.
Sir Ken Jackson, leader of trade union Amicus, said: "This should go a long way to securing a sustainable future for the plant in the decades ahead."
