Catastrophe in Bad Neustadt: Preh strokes 400 jobs!

Bad Neustadt an der Saale, Deutschland - A bitter blow for the automotive industry in Bavaria! The car supplier Preh from Bad Neustadt announces the radical dismantling of 400 jobs! IG Metall desperately tries to dissuade the board of this course, but in vain. The job cuts had already been announced in June and is now finally implemented. This step throws a bright light on the economic challenges with which the industry is faced.

The union expresses "disappointment and great lack of understanding" about the company's decision and warns of the far -reaching consequences for the region. Peh, which belongs to the Chinese Joyson Group and employs over 7,400 people worldwide, gives reasons for the measures to fall for a falling demand for components for electric vehicles and exorbitant energy costs in Germany. CEO Cai Zhengxin has made it clear that the economic framework conditions required an inevitable step.

job cuts despite the record -breaking sales!

It is also astonishing that the company has to use drastic measures despite an impressive sales of almost 8 billion euros. According to Nadine Knauff, union secretary from Schweinfurt, the employer did not want to make a future -oriented agreement at the end of the negotiations that could guarantee a long -term perspective for the location in Bad Neustadt. The job cuts are not just a number, but a direct threat to many families and the economic strength of the region!

The future of the location is uncertain, and the fronts between IG Metall and the company representatives are hardened. This could only be the beginning of further difficulties for the German automotive industry in a time -changing market, which is increasingly geared towards electric vehicles and green technologies. The question remains: How will the industry assert itself on the intensive competitive market?
