Former SPD secretary general and SPD executive board member Yasmin Fahimi has been elected DGB chairwoman by the DGB executive board. That an SPD member becomes chair of the DGB (Deutscher Gewerkschaftsbund /german federation of trade unions) is nothing new, but is tradition in the leadership of the unions.

The party book enables a high function in the union and a high function in the union enables greater influence in politics. In Fahimi's case, one can see very well how this worked. For example, she managed to become secretary general for a short time and later became state secretary in the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs thanks to her party colleague Andrea Nahles.
