VW shock for Germany: Tens of thousands of jobs in danger!
shock at Volkswagen! The works council makes it clear: dramatic times are imminent in Germany! "We are talking about several works that are to be closed and tens of thousands of jobs that are on the brink," warns the works council chairman Daniela Cavallo. At an explosive information event in Wolfsburg, she announced that the board is planning to close at least three production locations! And the worst: "None of the German VW works is safe!"
especially in the sights: the work in Osnabrück! Here VW recently lost an important follow -up order from Porsche, which dramatically exacerbates the situation. "Operating terminations are in the room," explains Cavallo, and the impending closure of entire departments is no longer out of air. With around 120,000 employees in Germany who are on the brink, this change could accept shocking proportions!
Volkswagen relies on rigid savings
VW defends the brutal savings plans immensely and yet remains vague: "The situation is serious," says HR board Gunnar Kilian. "We cannot afford essential future investments without drastic measures!" It remains guilty of concrete information about the drastic factory closures and possible wage cuts. Negotiations with the mighty IG Metall are already scheduled on Wednesday, and the management teams are preparing for tough discussions.
brand boss Thomas Schäfer blames the high production costs of the German locations. "We can't continue as before," he clarifies. Currently, the costs in some works are twice as high as with the competition! Teiling after savings was already in the room, and according to insider information, VW aims at a drastic wage cut of up to 10 percent and complete zero rounds in the next two years! A desperate attempt to increase profitability to 6.5 percent by 2026!
