Heidelberg's 'Focus' Program to Cost 2,000 Jobs

The objective of the “FOCUS 2012” efficiency program is to help significantly reduce capacities and costs at Heidelberg over the next two years. It is intended to lay the foundation for positive business developments in response to the volatile environment and changing market requirements. Most of the measures will be initiated and implemented quickly before the end of calendar year 2012. In addition, the program includes a number of medium- to long-term measures aimed at adapting the entire organization to the changed structures.
