Months of discussions between trade union IG Metall, the VW Works Council and company management on VW’s future, new technology and an efficient production system, have resulted in what the parties call a ‘pact for the future’. The emissions scandal got the company into a serious crisis in the context of which the pressure was high to lay off. While the company also plans to create some 9000 new jobs in the electric vehicle division, the goal is to avoid layoffs and instead phase out the outdated jobs with natural fluctuation, partial retirement and early retirement schemes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.industriall-union.org\u002Fvolkswagen-job-security-until-2025-despite-cuts\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.industriall-union.org\u002Fvolkswagen-job-security-until-2025-despite-cuts\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.bbc.com\u002Fnews\u002Fbusiness-38023933\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.bbc.com\u002Fnews\u002Fbusiness … \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>German: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.spiegel.de\u002Fwirtschaft\u002Funternehmen\u002Fvolkswagen-17-500-jobs-bei-vw-in-niedersachen-gefaehrdet-a-1122477.html\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.spiegel.de\u002Fwirtschaft\u002Funternehmen\u002Fvolkswagen-17-500-jobs-bei-vw … \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM3\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Willy De Backer \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:wdebacker@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">wdebacker@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
