Both sides are seeking to end a bitter standoff over potential factory closures and mass layoffs that has thrown Europe’s top car maker into its biggest crisis in years
Crunch talks between Volkswagen and unions over cuts to the automaker’s German operations will resume on Wednesday after a brief break, reflecting intense efforts to strike a deal before Christmas and avert major strikes in 2025., which began on Monday, as both sides seek to end a bitter standoff over potential factory closures and mass layoffs that has thrown Europe’s top car maker into its biggest crisis in years.
Germany’s IG Metall union, which has vowed fierce resistance to any plant closures and staff cuts, said it would provide an update depending on any new developments, adding it was currently not clear when that would be the case.
