Volkswagen: Cavallo warns of up to 115,000 VW job cuts in Germany
At a series of company meetings, VW chief Oliver Blume announces cutbacks in Germany. The chairwoman of the works council directly counters with her own bill.
Volkswagen's employee side is warning of potential job losses of over 100,000 in Germany. Daniela Cavallo, head of the company's overall works council, estimates up to 115,000 jobs could be at risk if the company's management board implements additional plans to cut jobs and fails to find new assignments for four German plants. The warning comes after VW CEO Oliver Blume told over 10,000 employees at the Wolfsburg plant that around half of the company's required adjustments would affect Germany.
Blume has previously stated that around 50,000 jobs worldwide need to be adjusted, with half of those being in Germany.
