Traunviertel in need: 900 jobs in danger - mayors speak out

In a worrying development, the employees of a car supplier made an alarm. Around 880 employees were registered with the labor market service (AMS) to find a job, which could have a significant impact on the local economy. This happens against the background of continuing uncertainty in the industry that the region is plaguing in recent months.

The mayors of the surrounding communities were concerned about the situation and confirmed that the government has so far taken no significant measures to help the employees concerned. The impression that no adequate support is available causes unrest and confusion among the population.

Situation of employees

The employees concerned now see themselves in an unsafe situation because they have to worry not only for their jobs, but also for their existence. Registration with the AMS means that you have to actively strive for new job opportunities. This is a stressful situation that can also be mentally challenging for many. "If nothing is done, this could lead to a massive increase in unemployment," warn the mayors.

The reasons for the financial difficulties of the car supplier have not yet been finally clarified. Experts speak of a combination of market developments and internal problems of the company. The uncertainty in the industry is an essential factor that affects many employees, and there is an urgent need for clear steps of action on the part of politics.

The more than 800 people who are now in the waiting loop are part of this mechanical engineering industry, which is traditionally greatly rooted in the region. Your jobs are on the brink and time is crucial. "Difficult for those affected," are described by the local politicians who underline the urgency of the situation.
