Volkswagen: Scenarios for cutting 30,000 jobs

The cut of 30,000 jobs has in its “microscope” the Volkswagen in order to reduce costs and improve competitiveness with companies such as Tesla, according to today’s newspaper article Handelsblatt.

The paper cites a presentation made to the supervisory board by Volkswagen CEO Herbert Dees.

“There is no doubt that we need to discuss the competitiveness of our Wolfsburg plant in relation to new entrants to the market,” said VW spokesman Michael Manske. “The debate is ongoing and there are already a lot of good ideas. “There are no clear scenarios,” he said, according to the APE-MPE.

A spokesman for the Volkswagen Workers’ Union said that while he would not comment on the speculation as to whether Dees had made the remarks, “a 30,000 job cut is absurd and unfounded”.
