Industry and Economics
The federal and state governments support the companies with support measures - for example, bridging aid, liquidity assistance or guarantees. Here you will find an updated overview of these offers.
As expected, the massive effects of the corona pandemic on mechanical engineering in Baden-Württemberg are becoming apparent in April with a minus of 41 percent compared to the same month last year.
The mechanical engineering industry in Baden-Württemberg is increasingly feeling the consequences of the corona pandemic and is taking active countermeasures. A current VDMA survey shows that 88 percent of the companies from the southwest that were surveyed have already made capacity adjustments.
In March 2020, incoming orders in Baden-Wuerttemberg's mechanical engineering industry were 4 percent lower than in the same month last year.
The state of Baden-Württemberg has decided to make it compulsory to wear so-called everyday masks covering mouth and nose when shopping and in local public transport from 27 April 2020. But what about the wearing of breathing masks in factories or in production? We have compiled some information and sources on this topic.
For your information and convenience, we have compiled an overview of the measures taken to support companies at state and federal level as well as the corresponding contact details and web addresses. We hope that this will support you in your work. If you have any questions or general queries or concerns in these difficult times, please do not hesitate to contact us.
