| In fiscal 2008/09, Voith analyzed developments in the markets of relevance to its business quickly, continuously and comprehensively. With a view to medium- and long-term planning needs, the personnel situation at each of the Group Divisions was carefully assessed. Where necessary, appropriate action was taken swiftly but circumspectly and in line with the Voith corporate culture. Overcapacity was thus adjusted ahead of time in line with the anticipated market situation. At September 30, 2009, Voith employed 39 329 people worldwide (previous year: 42 955). That is about 10% fewer staff than in the record 2007/08 fiscal year. |
