Michael Niggemann

Michael Niggemann is the Chief Human Resources Officer (Personalvorstand) at Lufthansa. He is currently newsworthy due to ongoing labor disputes and negotiations with various Lufthansa employee groups. Recently, he has been involved in addressing a planned strike by Lufthansa flight attendants, criticizing the action as irresponsible. Simultaneously, Niggemann played a key role in reaching a new wage agreement with ver.di, the union representing Lufthansa's ground staff, thus averting further strikes by that group. Despite this agreement, the possibility of strikes by other Lufthansa employee groups remains, keeping Niggemann's role in labor relations at the forefront.
