Thyssenkrupp Workers Worry About Job Security - Uncertainty looms over Thyssenkrupp workers due to job insecurity concerns
In the heart of Chemnitz, Germany, a demonstration is planned for Thursday on Neumarkt. Organised by the IG Metall trade union, the event will see the participation of employees from Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering, their families, and colleagues from supplier companies.
The focus of the demonstration is to secure the locations of Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering, a company with approximately 270 employees in Chemnitz and Hohenstein-Ernstthal (Zwickau district). The demand from IG Metall Chemnitz is not limited to securing the current jobs but also finding solutions to secure the location for future developments.
Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering is developing, setting up, and commissioning systems for battery assembly in the automotive industry at its Chemnitz and Hohenstein-Ernstthal locations, including a system for BMW Leipzig. The focus on battery storage technology suggests that the developments are geared towards the future needs of the automotive industry and potentially open up new opportunities for Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering in the renewable energy sector.
Eddie Kruppa, the first authorized representative of IG Metall Chemnitz, has stated that the highly qualified engineers in the Chemnitz region are developing future technologies. The mention of future technologies further emphasises the importance of securing the location for Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering.
The supervisory board of Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering is being urged to collaborate to find solutions to secure the location. Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering last concluded an investment contract in the automotive sector recently, involving a battery assembly system for BMW Leipzig, but no specific date of the contract signing was provided.
However, despite these investments, employees of Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering are worried about their jobs. The demonstration aims to address these concerns and ensure a secure future for the company and its employees.
The developments at Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering are taking place in the Chemnitz region, and the company is exploring alternatives in the field of battery storage for renewable energies. According to IG Metall, there are alternatives in this field, and securing the location for Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering could potentially lead to significant advancements in the renewable energy sector.
