"I welcomed this document because the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund was created in order to provide additional assistance to workers suffering the consequences of major structural changes in world trade patterns. On 11 May 2010, Denmark submitted an application to mobilise the EGF in respect of 813 workers made redundant from six enterprises involved in the manufacture of machinery and equipment in the region of Midtjylland. One of the Commission’s assessment criteria is the existence of a link between the redundancies and major structural changes in world trade patterns or the financial crisis. This particular case relates to the serious effect of the structural changes brought about by globalisation on the wind turbine manufacturing industry in the EU. Furthermore, according to the Danish authorities, the reduction of employment in Midtjylland was unforeseen because of the rapid expansion of the global wind energy sector. The coordinated package of personalised services to be funded, including its compatibility with actions funded by the Structural Funds, includes measures for clarification and reorientation (in order to determine the goals and plans of the workers), supplementary support for further education and training, an innovation laboratory (focussed on upgrading workers’ skills to enable them to take part in clean-tech based prototype work in existing companies), a mentoring scheme, a qualification hotline, job-seeking allowances and mobility allowances."@en1
