Disconnected workers at Nokia declare lack of faith in their company
“Nokia is no longer a social company”, trade unionists acknowledged at today’s coordination meeting, which took place at the EMF in Brussels.
Retracing the way Nokia announced, on 15th January, its intention to close the Bochum site, workers’ representatives came to the conclusion that Nokia made a mockery of its obligation to inform and consult its employees in line with the EU Directive on European Works Councils and German law.
