Vossloh confirms that the German Federal Cartel Office has delivered the expected fine notice for anticompetitive agreements between the years 2001 to 2011 to the switch manufacturer Vossloh Laeis GmbH, Trier, a subsidiary of the Vossloh Group, yesterday.

These are ensured through the implementation of mandatory worldwide standards of conduct for all employees of the Vossloh Group, the establishment of organization for the monitoring of these standards, as well as the necessary training measures.
