Opel Bochum Workers Fear Mass Layoffs

BOCHUM, GERMANY - MARCH 10: The logo of German automaker Opel stands on its factory behind a residential house on March 10, 2009 in Bochum, Germany. Opel, owned by General Motors, employs 5,300 people in Bochum and is facing a deep financial crisis that could well force it to lay off hundreds of its Bochum staff if not close the main Bochum plant entirely. The plant began operation in 1962 and was part of the so-called German "economic miracle" that brought West Germany, ravaged from World War II, up to the status of a world economic power. Opel is seeking billions of Euros in injections from the federal government, though Chancellor Angela Merkel has so far been reluctant to bail the company out. (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images)
