Layoffs & Downsizing

Subtitle: Layoffs achieved by means of voluntary measures
/Employment guarantee until March 2013


Hamburg (euro adhoc) - Wind turbine manufacturer Nordex has now fully
implemented its cost-cutting programme with which it plans to return to the
black next year. After trimming its operating expenses, the company has now also
made the necessary adjustments to its European workforce. All told, around 260
jobs are affected by the programme. "In the interests of industrial peace and
staff motivation, it was important for us to come up with a solution which
ensured minimum hardship while remaining affordable," says Thomas Richterich,
CEO of Nordex SE. "We achieved this in constructive negotiations with the
employee representative bodies."

Some 65 percent of the positions were removed by means of a volunteer programme.
For this purpose, Nordex offered its employees a settlement, the amount of which
was based on their length of service. Further reductions were achieved by staff
handing in their own notice. In this way, it was possible to avoid the need for
a broad hardship-minimisation plan or terminations for operational reasons.
Moreover, such terminations have been ruled out for the immediate future as the
contract with the employee representatives also provides for an employment
guarantee until March 2013.
