AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Semiconductor Jobs & Investment: Infineon opened its “Smart Power Fab” in Dresden, billed as the world’s largest power semiconductor plant, with production aimed at automotive, industrial and renewable energy uses and “thousands” of roles across engineering and manufacturing. Auto Restructuring & Workforce Risk: Volkswagen’s supervisory board meeting is set to pressure CEO Oliver Blume over plans that could close four German plants and cut up to 100,000 jobs, with unions and the Lower Saxony state expected to push back. Sick Leave Rules & HR Compliance: Germany is moving to tighten sick-leave practices, with doctor’s notes required from day one—an HR and payroll headache for employers and a major shift in workplace absence management. SAP Transformation & Skills Demand: SNP and Palantir announced a partnership to accelerate secure SAP migrations using AI, including automated test data selection—another signal that SAP data skills and governance expertise will stay in demand. Labour Market Signal (Nearby): Switzerland’s job market stayed flat in Q2, with vacancies down slightly overall but still rising in healthcare, skilled trades and IT. Defence Industry Funding Gap: Bulgaria says it lacks full funding for a planned Rheinmetall-linked propellant plant despite EU support, with the project expected to create 1,000 jobs.
