Workers to go unpaid as Saab crisis deepens

Things appear to have gone from bad to worse for Saab. The beleaguered manufacturer's production line has already fallen silent, and now it seems that it cannot even afford to pay its workers.

The company has thus far failed to obtain the short-term funding which would allow it to begin functioning again, and the unions that represent its employees have threatened legal action if their demands for payment are not met next week.
