IG Metall President Christiane Benner sets out an agenda for investment and job security in response to the German auto summit yesterday: "In view of the worsening crisis in the automotive industry, the sluggish ramp-up of electromobility, the reluctance to invest in the electromobility value chain, the time pressure in international competition for the markets of the future and the foreseeable failure to meet climate targets, IG Metall is now calling for a rapid new funding package for electromobility. Accelerating the ramp-up of e-mobility would help the climate as well as the manufacturers and suppliers who have invested billions in e-mobility. Investments must be worthwhile and fines next year for missing climate targets would be a fatal waste of money... We call on employers: Stop the hectic and action-oriented reductions in staff and locations. We need investments in the future and securing skilled workers, staying power instead of quick returns. Let us talk instead: exchange instead of excuses. But we have also made it clear that we believe it is the responsibility of politicians to do much more to support the politically set goals." https://lnkd.in/egTj_j9w industriAll Europe
