"I welcomed the document because the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) was established to support measures for those workers who are most affected by the massive job losses due to globalisation and the economic or financial crisis in the European Union and to help them reintegrate into the labour market. In the large majority of cases, EGF funds have been used to eliminate the consequences of redundancy due to the financial and economic crisis. I support the Commission’s proposal to extend until the end of 2013 a temporary derogation to support workers made redundant as a result of the global financial and economic crisis. I also think that Member States must actively make use of the EGF to implement European goals and promote new skills, including the skills necessary to create new, sustainable, high-quality green jobs. The EGF should also continue to finance only those active labour market measures which, in the event of mass redundancy, complement measures provided for under national legislation. In future, the payments supported by the EGF should always be coupled with training and retraining measures also funded by the EGF and not replace payments provided for under national or Community law or collective agreements."@en1
