Employees who lose their jobs as part of the reorganization of steel manufacturer Thyssenkrupp Steel Europe should remain with the company. Supervisory Board Chairman Sigmar Gabriel has spoken out in favor of this. "We cannot have any interest in losing even one person whose job will no longer exist as part of the restructuring as an employee," said Gabriel on Friday evening after a Supervisory Board meeting at which the planned restructuring was discussed.
Gabriel: Keeping employees in the company despite job cuts
"We will have a need for several thousand skilled workers in the coming years, which we cannot simply fill due to demographics alone," Gabriel continued. "That's why our goal must be to keep the people whose jobs are now being lost due to the restructuring in the ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe environment, in the qualification company, in the company itself, so that they can gradually compensate for the resulting need for skilled workers." He continues: "We must do everything we can to ensure that the people who lose their current jobs are not lost to us as employees."
The program provides for a significant reduction in steel production capacity in Duisburg. This will be accompanied by job cuts. However, the program has not yet been approved by the Supervisory Board due to unresolved financing issues. It is not known how many jobs will be cut as part of the restructuring. The reduction is to take place without compulsory redundancies
