"The EU is an area of solidarity and the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) is a part of that. This support is essential for helping the unemployed and victims of company relocations that occur within a globalised context. More and more companies are relocating, taking advantage of lower labour costs in a number of countries, particularly China and India, with a damaging effect on those countries that respect workers’ rights. The EGF aims to help workers who are victims of the relocation of companies, and it is essential for facilitating access to new employment. The EGF has been used by other EU countries in the past, so now it is appropriate to grant this aid to Portugal, which has requested assistance with regard to 974 redundancies, 680 of which are targeted for assistance, at a company located mainly in the municipality of Santa Maria da Feira, and which has also affected the contiguous municipality of Ovar, both located respectively within the two NUTS II regions of Norte and Centro, in Portugal."@en1
