It is now official: at a staff meeting on Monday, December 10, Opel, the German carmaker, heavily in-debt European subsidiary of General Motors, announced that it would no longer make any cars in Bochum after 2016, which should lead to about 3,000 job cuts. Opel's logistics center in Bochum, which currently employs 430 people, should be maintained and a new components plant could be created. However, accusing the management of violating the collective agreement, the chairman of Bochum's WC warned that employees were going to fight to keep their plant, if necessary through strikes.
