大众汽车劳工团体提议削减16亿美元成本以避免工厂关闭
VW labour groups propose $1.6 billion of cuts to avoid plant closures
大众汽车公司的劳工团体提议额外削减15亿欧元（16亿美元）的成本，其背景是这家德国汽车制造商正在大力削减开支，这导致工人与管理层之间的纠纷日益增多。
Labour groups at Volkswagen (VW) have proposed €1.5 billion ($1.6 billion) in additional cost cuts, amid a major expense-reduction drive by the German automaker that has led to growing disputes between workers and the management.
在周三的新闻发布会上，IG Metall工会和大众汽车工作委员会提出额外的成本削减措施，包括暂停发放2025年和2026年的奖金。不过，作为回报，这两个组织要求大众汽车恢复工作保障协议，并保持德国工厂的正常运营。
In a press conference on Wednesday, IG Metall trade union and the Volkswagen works council offered additional cost cuts, including through the suspension of bonuses for 2025 and 2026. However, in return, the groups have demanded the automaker reinstate job security agreements and keep its German plants open.
大众汽车公司工作委员会主席Daniela Cavallo表示，管理层目前的目标是削减约170亿欧元的总成本。虽然她承认可能需要裁员，但这位领导建议将一些专门用于加薪的资金转而投入一个基金，以帮助支付可能的裁员和其他临时工作措施的费用。
VW works council chief Daniela Cavallo said the management is currently targeting around €17 billion in overall cost reductions. While she acknowledged the potential need for staff reductions, the leader proposed using some money earmarked for wage increases to instead be put into a fund to help cover possible layoffs and other temporary work measures.
IG Metall的首席谈判代表Thorsten Gröger说，如果管理层继续关闭工厂，将导致行业纠纷，“这个国家几十年来从未见过这样的纠纷”。
Thorsten Gröger, the lead negotiator for IG Metall, said that if the management goes ahead with plant closures, it would lead to industry disputes, “the likes of which this country has not seen for decades.”
这家德国汽车制造商曾在9月份表示，不排除关闭德国工厂的可能性，因为该公司正努力应对电动汽车销量下滑和日益激烈的竞争。上个月，Cavallo表示，大众汽车正计划关闭在德国的至少三家工厂，这在该公司87年的历史上尚属首次，并将裁员“数万人”。该公司还结束了一项已有几十年历史的工作保障计划，该计划原本将持续到2029年底。
The German automaker in September said it would not rule out closing factories in Germany as it struggled with falling EV sales and growing competition. Last month, Cavallo said VW was planning to close at least three plants in the country – a first in the company’s 87-year history – and cut “tens of thousands” of jobs. The company has also ended a decades-old job security programme that was set to run until the end of 2029.

福特汽车公司以确保长期竞争力为由，于周三宣布在德国裁员2,900人。由于需求疲软，这家汽车制造商将在欧洲裁员4,000人，并削减科隆工厂的电动汽车产量。
Citing the need to ensure long-term competitiveness, Ford announced on Wednesday, 2,900 job cuts in Germany. The carmaker will reduce its workforce by 4,000 employees in Europe and curb production of EVs at its Cologne plant due to weak demand.
