The situation for German foundries is difficult: According to a survey by BDG, almost 40 % of the companies surveyed had already introduced short-time working or were planning to do so in the immediate future. In addition, concrete liquidity support, for example by loans, and the extension of the short-time working allowance to 24 months are called for.
