Other headquarter functions will be further streamlined. The planned action will affect around 40 people in the headquarters' location in Pfäffikon with the effect of significantly raising the performance of these tasks. Oerlikon employs nearly 20,000 people worldwide.
The organizational reorientation will be completed with this step. "We absolutely stick to the one-company approach and clear leadership by central orientation and steering," states CEO Krüger.
"But instead of further inflating headquarters, we now implement a highly productive and efficient relationship between the operative units and the headquarters.
In doing so, we assure that every entity can deliver their highest added value to unleash additional synergy potential for the benefit of the whole company", says Krüger.
