Biography
Yasmin Fahimi has a strong sense of justice. After studying chemistry, she therefore decided to join a trade union. During her time as a trade union secretary at the IGBCE, she got to know the concerns of employees first-hand. She later took this knowledge with her into German federal politics. As SPD General Secretary, State Secretary and directly elected member of the Bundestag, she always remained true to the issues of labor and social affairs. She has been DGB President since 2022, the first woman to hold this position.
