<strong>Daimler</strong> 360 GRAD - FAKTEN zur Nachhaltigkeit 2008<br />

<strong>Daimler</strong> Nachhaltigkeitsbericht 2008 / Employees / Workforce / Fluctuation<br />

Fluctuation<br />

The <strong>Daimler</strong> Group’s worldwide employee fluctuation rate in 2007 was 7.1 percent, a decrease of 0.7 percentage<br />

points from the prior year. The fluctuation rate in Germany was 3.6 percent (2006: 7.8 percent), while in the U.S.<br />

it was 17.8 percent (2006: 5.5 percent), and in the rest of the world 10.9 percent (2006: 9.1 percent). These<br />

figures include human resources measures such as early retirements, voluntary severance agreements, part-time<br />

phased early retirement contracts (especially in Germany), and layoff contracts in the U.S. The decline in the<br />

fluctuation rate in Germany was primarily due to the conclusion of CORE restructuring measures. The sharp<br />

increase in fluctuation of 12.3 percent in the U.S. resulted from workforce reductions related to the aftereffects<br />

of advanced purchases due to the introduction of the more stringent EPA 07 emission limits.
