"We need cost reductions that can be implemented in the short term and are sustainable," said the company's lead negotiator, Arne Meiswinkel. "This is the only way we can remain competitive in a challenging environment."
Christiane Benner, chairwoman of the IG Metall union, expressed her frustration, stating, "Instead of intelligent solutions, they offer only mass layoffs and job cuts." She emphasized that the current crisis stems from executive mismanagement.
Addressing workers, Benner stated, "The problems are huge, but they can't be solved with closures, redundancies and wage cuts. The blame for the crisis does not lie with the employees, but with the many bad decisions made by the management."
