Thyssenkrupp: why steel workers are mad at Habeck – economy

Thyssenkrupp would also like such pictures, only with an even larger number: A few weeks ago at the Hanover Fair, Federal Minister of Economics Robert Habeck presented Gunnar Groebler, head of steel manufacturer Salzgitter, with a grant notification. On the extra large expression was 999,782,173.87 euros – the federal and state governments are paying almost one billion euros to the Lower Saxony group so that it can convert parts of its steel production to climate-friendly processes. The Essen rival Thyssenkrupp is planning something similar, albeit a little more extensive. But at Thyssenkrupp the funding decision is a long time coming. Workers’ representatives are already warning that the delay threatens the entire project.
