Audi wants to cut the workforce by 15% warnings of thousands of jobs at stake

Initially it was Wolfgang, and panic has now spread to other areas.

So say the German media, which report that Audi is considering cutting the workforce by 15 percent in a dramatic effort to cut costs, sends out Telegrafi.

The news comes from Manager Magazin, who claims that Audi will maintain production line positions and instead focus his movement on “directe” as development.

MM says this would mean 2,000 layoffs.

But reductions in other parts of the business would eventually result in 4,500 people demanding a new salary.

Audi admitted to Reuters that her board is currently holding talks with workers' representatives, but declined to confirm the report's assessment of the total layoffs.

Loss of jobs on the grounds of Audi's house will give German staff automotive producers a taste of uncertainty that 3,000 of their colleagues in Brussels, Belgium, have had to endure recently. /Telegraphy/
