Schaeffler AG expands partial retirement offer in Germany
The automotive and industrial supplier Schaeffler AG has made an important decision for its workforce in Germany. As the company recently announced, the existing offer for partial retirement models will be significantly expanded.
With this measure, the group aims to provide its employees with more flexibility during the transition into retirement. The regulation is aimed at employees who wish to gradually reduce their working hours in the final years before retirement.
The board's decision is part of a strategic workforce planning effort. The expanded offer is intended to actively manage demographic change within the company while simultaneously strengthening its attractiveness as an employer.
For the affected employees at the German plants and locations, this offers new opportunities to conclude their professional careers in an individual and health-conscious manner. Details regarding the requirements and implementation are to be announced internally in the coming weeks.
