IG Metall Warns of Major Labor Conflict Over VW Plant Closures

Reported 1 day ago

IG Metall has signaled readiness for a significant labor conflict with Volkswagen if the automaker proceeds with plant closures, despite workers being willing to concede €1.5 billion in ongoing negotiations. Union negotiator Thorsten Groeger warned that strikes could begin as early as December 1, as tensions rise over proposed pay cuts and shutdowns. Volkswagen is under pressure to reduce costs to compete with Asian rivals, signaling deep cuts may be necessary for its future.
