Daimler: Dispute between works councils and the Board of Management comes to a head

The Daimler plant in Untertürkheim, which currently employs some 19,000 people, is facing radical change. The production of combustion engines there is being relocated to other Eastern European countries, and around 4,000 jobs are at stake. At the same time, Daimler Untertürkheim intends to transform itself into a center of excellence for e-mobility and thus create new jobs. The Daimler Group management recently negotiated with the works council in Untertürkheim about the future orientation of the plant. The discussions came to a head - now the talks are on hold for the time being. Business editor Yannik Buhl analyzes the background in the video.
