Mercedes-Benz spends up to 4 million to encourage employees to resign
According to reports, the management of Mercedes will send a letter to all employees in April, offering very generous severance packages for departing employees. Mercedes CEO Ola Källenius stated that the generous severance packages could encourage about 30,000 employees to voluntarily leave, and the relevant details have been agreed upon with the employee committee. Ergun Lümali mentioned that if employees do not wish to leave, they do not have to. However, if they choose to leave, they will receive a substantial compensation. For a middle manager working in the office with a monthly salary of nearly 80,000 RMB and at least 30 years of service with the company, the severance pay could exceed 4 million RMB. For a factory worker in their 30s with a monthly salary of about 48,000 RMB, the severance pay is slightly above 800,000 RMB
