Redundancies for BBS Autotechnik workforce
Approximately 220 employees of wheel maker BBS Autotechnik in Germany received their redundancy notices in the post yesterday. The redundancies apply to all workers save for a team of 16 who will continue to work to wind up the firm. Insolvency administrator Dr Dirk Pehl previously announced that needed to make all but a few employees redundant, but notifications couldn’t be sent out until various agreements between the employer and the BBS works council were approved and notification of large-scale redundancies submitted to Germany’s state employment agency (Agentur für Arbeit).
