BERLIN — Germany’s federal prosecutor has ordered the arrest of a man accused of helping a German intelligence official spy for the Russian secret service.

The detained man, identified only as Arthur E. in keeping with German privacy laws, is accused of transmitting stolen information from the German Federal Intelligence Service to Russia.

The federal police arrested him on Sunday at Munich Airport, where he had arrived upon returning from a trip to the United States. He is being investigated on accusations of abetting treason.

In December, the authorities arrested a man identified as Carsten L., a section head in Germany’s Federal Intelligence Service who investigators believe stole secret information to pass on to Moscow. The German service had been tipped off by an allied intelligence service that found German documents in the hands of Russian services.

Known by its German initials, B.N.D., the Federal Intelligence Service is responsible for gathering intelligence outside Germany — similar to the C.I.A.

The federal prosecutor’s office, which received F.B.I. support in the investigation, said that Arthur E. had traveled to Russia for the handover of stolen intelligence.

Both of the detained men are now in jail awaiting the outcome of the investigation and indictments.

Together with layoffs announced by manufacturer 3M Co. [US:MMM] this week, these companies are trimming more than 10,000 jobs, just a fraction of their total workforces. Still, the decisions mark a shift in sentiment inside executive suites, where many leaders have been holding on to workers after struggling to hire and retain them in recent years after the pandemic disrupted workplaces.

Unlike Microsoft Corp. and Google parent Alphabet Inc. , which announced larger layoffs this month, these companies haven’t expanded their workforces dramatically during the pandemic. Instead, the leaders of these global giants said they were shrinking to adjust to slowing growth, or responding to weaker demand for their products.

The U.S. job market remains historically tight, with unemployment in December at 3.5% matching multidecade lows. The number of job openings still far outpaces the number of people looking for work. The Federal Reserve has been raising interest rates to tame growth and combat high inflation. But CEOs say many companies are beginning to scrutinize hiring more closely.

Not all companies are in layoff mode. Walmart Inc., the country’s biggest private employer, said this week it was raising its starting wages for hourly U.S. workers to $14 from $12, amid a still tight job market for front line workers. General Electric Co., which slashed thousands of aerospace workers in 2020 and is currently laying off 2,000 workers from its wind turbine business, is hiring in other areas. “If you know any welders or machinists, send them my way,” Chief Executive Larry Culp said this week.
