Kommentar: Der Grund für die Krise der deutschen Industrie, über den kaum jemand spricht
Fast nirgendwo sonst bekommen Beschäftigte so viele Extras für so wenig Einsatz. Um die Industrie zu retten, müsste ein Grundsatz einziehen, der für Arbeitnehmer in Deutschland bisher nicht gilt.
The industrial crisis in Germany, and particularly the automotive sector, is currently clear-cut: it has been caused by a policy that set the wrong framework and, over the years, has slowed down the structural changes in the global economy. The public perspective, as well as that of affected workers and companies, is that the crisis needs to be solved.
The industrial crisis is not just a political issue; it is also an issue of companies that rested on their laurels, failed to recognize the competition from China, and did not take it seriously. This aspect is occasionally discussed, but what is rarely spoken about is that the industrial crisis is also a crisis of its workers. The competitiveness of German industrial companies is not only undermined by wrong frameworks and management mistakes; it is also diminished by privileges of the industrial workforce that are outdated in time.
