The Audi Group workforce averaged 58,011 (57,822) employees in the 2009 fiscal year; its size
was therefore slightly up on the previous year, despite the difficult economic situation. AUDI AG
recruited 400 experts mainly in engineering sciences during the past year. The Company in addi-
tion increased the number of apprenticeships available in 2009 and resolved to recruit a further
100 people in 2010 as part of an apprenticeship campaign to mark the 100th anniversary. The
personnel total at AUDI HUNGARIA MOTOR Kft. was down on the previous year due to reduced
engine and vehicle production volume.
