The change requires regulatory approval and may lead to shifts in market dynamics if adopted.
Volkswagen is considering significant layoffs, plant closures, and pay cuts of around 10% across its German operations due to economic pressures. The company’s works council, led by Daniela Cavallo, warned that tens of thousands of jobs are at risk and that all German VW plants could be impacted. Volkswagen cited rising energy, material, and labor costs, coupled with low revenue from car sales, as reasons for the restructuring. The carmaker is also planning to outsource some departments, facing pushback from unions like IG Metall.
