"This is another request for the mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF). Once again, it is Portugal making the request. This request is aimed at supporting the reintegration into the labour market of workers made redundant from Rohde; a total of 974 redundancies, 680 of whom are targeted for assistance. The total amount is EUR 1 449 500. The story behind these redundancies is, sadly, like many others.
The report mentions that the company was bought by a joint venture between Square Four and the merchant bank Morgan Stanley in an attempt to save Rohde and its level of production. The factory in Portugal was planned to remain in production. However, as in so many similar cases, workers began to be made redundant. In addition to these circumstances, orders from the parent enterprise declined, which affected the situation of the Rohde factory in Santa Maria da Feira, Portugal, and as a result, insolvency proceedings started in September 2009, leading to the eventual closure of the factory and the dismissal of the workers.
Once again, I would denounce the unfair criteria of this fund and its regulation. Germany has submitted an application for a similar number of workers, and has been granted the mobilisation of an amount approximately three times greater than that mobilised for Portugal."@en1
