Both representatives are well-known faces in the MAN community and bring impressive experience with them. Uc, an experienced works council member, has been part of MAN in Salzgitter since 1986 and has had an impressive career from company fitter to various high positions in the corporate sector.

“It is very important to us to represent the interests of all employees and to actively intervene on behalf of the region,” emphasizes Uc, who has been a member of the works council since 2006 and also serves on the general works council (GBR) and the economic committee (WIA). Andrea Deiana, who began his training at MAN in 1994, also played an essential role as he took on responsibility in the management of the trust body and as a volunteer judge at the labor court and the state labor court.

They see the election as confirmation of their previous work and as a mandate to further protect and strengthen the interests of the workforce. With Uc and Deiana behind them, the workforce at MAN feels well represented. You are open to colleagues' concerns and approach challenges with a positive approach.

The number of employees at MAN Truck & Bus SE in Salzgitter plays a central role in the region, which Uc and Deiana see as a responsible task. Especially in times when the automotive industry is facing changes, they feel called upon to contribute their voice and represent the interests of their employees.

A look into the future

The challenges for the automotive industry are great, especially with regard to the transformation towards more efficient and environmentally friendly mobility solutions. Uc and Deiana are aware of this responsibility and would like to work with the workforce to develop solutions to further strengthen the Salzgitter location. “We have a good hand and are optimistic about the future,” concludes Uc. Strengthening team spirit and cohesion will play a central role.

The commitment of Hüseyin Uc and Andrea Deiana makes it clear that the voice of employees is not only heard, but also taken seriously. This course is seen as important in the region, and the two works councils have made it their mission to actively work for the interests of their colleagues.
