Voith remains Heidenheim's sponsor despite job cuts - Voith slashes 2,500 global jobs despite strong order books
Voith, a prominent machinery manufacturer, has revealed plans to eliminate approximately 2,500 jobs globally. This reduction constitutes roughly 10% of its workforce. The decision comes despite the company reporting robust demand and full order books.
The job cuts are part of a wider review into structural and workforce adjustments. Voith has emphasized that the move aims to optimize operations while maintaining efficiency. Despite the reductions, the company remains financially sound with ongoing projects.
The job cuts will impact about 2,500 employees globally. Voith's sponsorship of 1. FC Heidenheim, however, remains secure. The company has assured that its football partnership is unaffected by internal restructuring.
