I find it very sad when comparing the willingness to do something meaningful of the adidas Works Council to other Works Councils in other companies in the region or even Germany. The adidas WoCo seems more focused on playing the company games and securing their pension fund.
Every now and then posting an inflammatory post in yammer, unveiling some "urgent unknown matters" but absolutely no action is taken afterwards, bread and games.
Keeping silent on any real-world issues like percentage of sick people, illegal layoffs, mobbing and so on.
What are they doing? What real actions were taken to protect the employees from abuse? Reading all the threads on this website, one wonders if there is even a Works Council or if it's just hot air and smoke screen.
So dear WoCo, just in case you read this, start by taking some measurable actions, be available for the employees, protect them, as long as there still is something to protect. Who knows for how long....
