Abstract

Since the liberalization of electricity markets and the energy transition occurred in the German electricity industry to a drastic downsizing. Every fourth jobs have been destroyed from 1998 until 2013. The article shows that this could have been avoided by a reduction of working hours with real wages.. The distribution of space from productivity and inflation rates were used but reality on one side for the benefit of capital. The wage rate has declined in the electricity sector 1998-2013 extremely 24.5 percentage points! In the December 2015 adopted energy and climate policy decisions of Paris will enable, the electricity sector, further the German energy industry as a whole but also in particular under a tremendous pressure to adapt. Without having to bring the human resources instrument of reducing working hours used now at the latest, there will be a further enormous destruction of jobs. The social partners are therefore now required to make an even distribution of remaining work in the framework of realized value creation.
