This is impressive, and I'm usually not a fan of unions, but they actually thinking ahead and switching to a electric vehicle must mean that at least some of their members will have to either drastically change what they do become unemployed, possibly both, which can't be an easy sell.

I am also entirely certain the union is entirely correct in how they see the future.

Germany has an unusual knack for making normally inefficient things efficient. You are probably used to unions in America which are often extremely inefficient, to the detriment of the company/government department.
