Trade union position – “There will be a KTM future in Mattighofen”

Date:

After Motorcycle manufacturers KTM this morning returned a new road to production and a week of 30 hours before all employees and employees announced, there is a shock stiff at the location in Mattighofen. However, the top union in the upper Austria remains confident.

“I think there will be a future of the KTM in Mattighofen,” says Wolfgang Gerstmayer, director of GPA Oberösterreich in an initial reaction. As reported, the motorcycle manufacturer will take the work in Mattighofen again after three months from next Monday. From 1 May a week of 30 hours applies to employees and employees. The reason for the dismantling of production is to miss components.

Hope for investor
Gerstmayer also emphasized that due to the bankruptcy the supply chains “more or less came to a halt” that could not be produced. It cost a business solution for this and it was now found. “Of course we hope that on 23 May there will be a investor who then secures the continuation of the KTM and also the location in Mattighofen.”

Uncertainty with employees
Nevertheless, the uncertainty in staff is great. “The employees now stay at home for the second time after they have been told that production is being increased,” said the trade union treasure. “And especially in times when life is more expensive than ever, to do without 20 percent of the salary is a huge reduction.”

Praise for management
After the departure of Stefan Pierer, however, he sprinkled roses: “There are now new board members who work well. They took us on board, which has not always been the case in the past.” The social partnership that Pierer “never really gave up” was “” lived “and there were constructive discussions.” I also have the impression that the people involved are really interested in the board that the company will continue, “said Gerstmayer.
