230 companies in short -time work: industries are fighting for the future!

Wertheim, Deutschland - In the Schwäbisch Hall/Tauberbischofsheim agency district, 230 companies have already displayed short-time work for around 10,500 employees, reports Main-echo.de. In particular, the mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, metal and construction and construction industry are affected. Agency spokeswoman Verena Kraus points out that companies like Eirich who supply machines for the automotive industry are in a precarious location, since uncertainties in the automotive sector are strengthened by geopolitical developments and political decisions. This means that even suppliers and logistics companies come under pressure.

In January, around 200 Kurtz Ersa employees in Kreuzwertheim will be affected by short -time work. Managing Director Mühleck as the main reasons gives the geopolitical uncertainties and the tendency of China to prefer local suppliers instead of international suppliers. Frustration in German industry is growing because politics is perceived as culpable. Ralf Rohmann from a mechanical engineering company criticizes German politics and warns of a wave of bankruptcy and layoffs, which in particular could hit the Main-Tauber and Neckar-Odenwald regions. After that, he sees the year 2025 as a year full of challenges, with impending massive employment losses in numerous companies.

The developments are not only important locally. The decline in short workers in Germany, as in the analysis of Statista in the near future could change through the current situation in the affected industries. While many companies are trying to adapt to the changed conditions, it remains uncertain how strongly short -time work will increase. Industry experts expect almost everyone to be affected, since the economic interdependencies are not only regionally but also internationally important.
