Description
The German facade construction company Roschmann Konstruktionen aus Stahl und Glas, based in Gersthofen, has filed for insolvency. This affects 100 employees at the Gersthofen site, who have already received termination notices. Only a small part of the 120 employees will remain to complete the ongoing projects. The company cites declining demand and delays in major projects as reasons for the insolvency which is reiterated by the insolvency administrator.
The sister company Roschmann Glas is being taken over by the Austrian firm Ertl Glas. As a result, the 50 employees there are not affected by layoffs. The remaining international subsidiaries in the US, the UK, and France are also not affected by the insolvency.

European labour markets have recovered strongly from COVID-19. By the end of 2021, little more than 18 months after the start of the pandemic, employment rates in the EU were almost at pre-crisis levels.
