Mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund: redundancies in the machinery sector in Belgium

This dossier concerns mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund for redundancies in the machinery sector in Belgium. The amendments link the redundancies to structural changes in world trade and competition in the construction and mining machinery sectors, and address workers made redundant at Caterpillar and suppliers, the Charleroi and Hainaut region's recovery, planned training and job-search actions, income-support limits, and consultation with public employment services and trade unions.
