☆ Volkswagen workers prepare to strike across Germany
  + stars: | 2024-12-01 | by ( Hanna Ziady | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
London CNN —Tens of thousands of Volkswagen workers will participate Monday in strikes at plants across Germany, labor union IG Metall said, marking the largest walkouts at the carmaker’s domestic operations since 2018. “If necessary, this will become the toughest wage dispute Volkswagen has ever seen,” IG Metall’s chief negotiator Thorsten Groeger said in a statement Sunday. The walkouts will be the first large-scale strikes that Volkswagen has faced since 2018, according to IG Metall, when 50,000 workers idled plants over pay. Indefinite strikes could also be called as a last resort, but only after members have been consulted again, IG Metall said. Volkswagen has said it may need to close plants in Germany for the first time in its 87-year history.

☆ Volkswagen plans to close ‘at least’ 3 German plants and lay off thousands of workers
  + stars: | 2024-10-28 | by ( Hanna Ziady | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
London CNN —Volkswagen plans to close “at least” three factories in Germany, lay off tens of thousands of staff and downsize remaining plants in the country, the company’s employee group said Monday. The plans are already facing pushback from labor unions in the country, where Volkswagen employs 295,000 people, setting the stage for possible strikes in the coming weeks. Volkswagen has been locked in negotiations with unions for weeks over its plans to cut costs and restructure business operations. A Volkswagen employee holds a placard reading "Hands off the collective agreement" during a VW works council event in Zwickau, eastern Germany on October 28, 2024. It has previously said that it would seek to terminate an employment protection agreement with labor unions, which has been in place since 1994, to “future proof” the business.
