Now it also hits Jungheinrich: Because of the effects of the Corona crisis, the stacker group is pausing production in its main Moosburg plant.
Moosburg - Jungheinrich plans to temporarily shut down production at its main Moosburg plant starting tomorrow, Friday. The reason is supply shortages in the supply of materials due to the corona crisis. “The goal is to resume production after Easter. By then, the stocks should be replenished, ”says a press release on Thursday. During this time, the employees were on short-time work.
All other Jungheinrich plants (including Moosburg-Degernpoint) and the after-sales area were not affected by the interruption. "Jungheinrich continues to provide its customers with the best possible support in areas such as food production and processing, food retailing, medical care, and transport and warehouse logistics, which are extremely important in the current difficult situation," emphasizes the group.
Around 1,000 Jungheinrich employees work short-time
A pragmatic short-time working arrangement was made with the approximately 1,000 employees at the main plant. The plant in Moosburg remains open even during the production break to ensure that the goods are received.
The fact that those responsible in the company had been dealing with the issue of short-time work for a few days had already been confirmed last week at the annual press conference. Other plans for the plant in Moosburg-Degernpoint were also discussed.
