Thyssenkrupp wants to set up further divisions independently
Steel and marine has been working on the independence of the Stahl and Marine for a long time at Thyssenkrupp. Now the group also takes a look at the other divisions. What does that mean for the employees?
The industrial group Thyssenkrupp also wants to set up the other three business areas independently after the independence of the steel and naval shipbuilding divisions. In the medium term, Thyssenkrupp AG should become a strategic group management company with independent units, the company said in Essen. They want to keep majority investments in the shops. The “picture” had previously reported on the planned conversion of the company into a holding company.
“The core of the considerations is to gradually independent all business areas of Thyssenkrupp and open to third parties to participate,” the company reported. With the split off a minority share of Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems and the desired joint venture of the steel division, important course has already been made.
Savings and auto parts divisions should also become independent
According to the announcement, the divisions of materials and auto parts are also to be set up in the coming years. Independence should follow as soon as the necessary requirements are created. The still young segment “Decarbon Technologies”, in which Thyssenkrupp has bundled its technologies for CO2 desolation, should be independently independent “after the markets for green technologies have started accordingly”.
With the exception of the planned joint venture, it is generally striving to keep majority investments in the business areas after the capital market capacity is manufactured. The company emphasized. “The aim is to form a focused, agile and newly structured industrial group.” Thyssenkrupp AG should become a strategic group management company with strong, independent companies.
Thyssenkrupp: Clear future perspective for employees
With the reorganization, the group offers its almost 96,000 employees worldwide a clear future perspective. “By creating the prerequisites for the best possible development of the segments, we give people a good and safe future at Thyssenkrupp,” said Labor Director Wilfried von Rath.
