The german Bank Volksbank Kraichgau dismissed the Chairman of the Work Council Torsten Wacker using the suspicious accusation of taking advantage of commission payments.

But the Work Council has not given its formal approval as requested by German law !

The case is now at the German Labour Court.

Thorsten Wacker has been employed by the bank for 33 years and has built up a strong Work Council through his courageous commitment and dedication to the interests of employees.

For Verdi, the action taken by the Bank is clearly an attempt to weaken the Work Council and make the workers' representatives silent.

Please support our colleague by signing this solidarity message!

Dear colleague Torsten Wacker,

We know you as a highly dedicated Work Council Chairman, who has been working very hard to defend the workers’ rights with Verdi and the trade union movement. Your commitment to the enforcement of the collective agreement applies both within the company and beyond. Your job is now threatened by a termination without notice.
We will not allow this and support you, Verdi and the Work Council in your effort for social justice !
