Overview
- Executives said repeated short‑time work failed to fill capacity, leading to a headcount reduction focused on voluntary departures.
- The company aims to find roughly 90 volunteers by December across production and administration to avoid compulsory layoffs.
- Departing employees are offered tenure-based severance, an age program for staff 60+, and placement support via a transfer company.
- Dethleffs plans to invest a high single‑digit million euro sum in new machinery and insourcing at Isny, and it is targeting a fully electric RV by 2028.
- A spokesperson said additional cuts are not expected soon, with the adjustment reflecting the post‑pandemic slump that saw German RV sales fall sharply in 2024, according to CIVD.
