Frankfurt am Main – The IG Metall Executive Board decided today to once again nominate the current leadership team to the delegates of the 24th Regular Union Congress.

The proposal thus continues to nominate Jörg Hofmann (63) for the office of First Chairperson. Also being renominated are Christiane Benner (51) for the office of Second Chair and Jürgen Kerner (50) for the office of Chief Treasurer. The current executive members of the Executive Board—Wolfgang Lemb (57), Hans-Jürgen Urban (57), Irene Schulz (55), and Ralf Kutzner (59)—are also being proposed for reelection.

According to the bylaws, the Union Congress—the highest governing body of IG Metall—meets every four years to adopt political guidelines and the work program, as well as to elect the executive members of the Executive Board. The next Union Congress will take place from October 6–12, 2019, in Nuremberg.
